DEDICATION. 



/ivO yoUi niy gallant Sons who have served your Queen and Country in South 
f Africa, in pride and love I dedicate this volume. More precious than 
the spoils of war devoted to the service of the Lord when kings went forth to 
battle long ago, are the offerings of flesh and blood which I have given in you, 
my valiant children. Lamenting that the cause of liberty and justice must thus 
be fought in your blood, I yet am proud that when the trumpet-call of Duty 
sounded, you answered with eagerness and joy. Yours it was not to ask the 
reason of the fray, but just to play the soldier's part, to do or die. 

I am watching at the window with throbbing heart, and crying through the 
lattice — ** Why are the chariots so long in coming ? Why tarry the wheels of the 
chariots?" But, considering how honour doth become you, and pleased that you 
seek danger where you are like to find fame, I say with Volumnia to every 
Virgilia who weeps at her sewing — *' Had I a dozen sons, each in my love alike 
and none less dear than thine and my good Marcius, I had rather had eleven die 
nobly for their country than one voluptuously surfeit out of action." 

If your heads may be covered by loving, watchful spirits coming from afar 
to brood and hover over them, there is none without his helmet in the battle 
hour. But shelter you do not ask who know that 

"Cowards die many times before their death; 
The valiant never taste of death but once." 

I commend you to the care and keeping of Him who, marching to victory 
by paths which are wet with the blood of millions of His creatures, is yet quick 
to mark the sparrow's fall. 

This Muster-Roll I lay at your feet ; but when its letters are illegible and 
the occasion which gave it birth has been forgotten, your names will still be 
found upon that other and immortal Muster-Roll of noble hearts who have bled 
beneath the standard with motto, " Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori."

PREFACE. 




I HE MUSTER-ROLL OF ANGUS" is the realisation of a patriotic idea 
which first discovered itself in the inimls of Mrs Lindsay Carnegie of 
Spynie and Boysack, and Miss Jane C. C. Macdonald, Windmill House, 
Arbroath. Once discovered, the idea soon developed into a scheme for 
the publication of a volume in which might be preserved the names and portraits of 
Men of Angus who had fought in the South African War, or rendered other 
service at the Front during the conflict. The scheme was not inspired by any provincial 
egotism ; the Promoters had no thought that the services of Men of Angus in the 
British Forces were more worthy of commemoration than those rendered by men of 
the Lothians or the Border. They desired simply to do for their own shire-family 
what they hoped would be done in other counties and communities throughout the 
United Kingdom and the Colonies— each following its own plan in honouring its 
valiant sons. 

The community of Angus greeted " The Muster-Roll " proposal with unanimity 
and enthusiasm. Amongst all classes the effort to record the names and commemorate 
the services of those who, in Angus's name, had answered the call for men to fight 
for Queen and country, had the heartiest approval. Sons and daughters of Angus, 
botli at home and abroad, and many relatives and other friends along with them, 
were prompt, whole-hearted, and practical in their benediction; Angus became quick 
with the sense of kinship and approbation of her children's valour. With what 
intrepidity her sons have proved themselves worthy of commemoration many an 
honourable wound, and many a lonely grave, upon which, with silent eyes, the 
Southern stars look down, may tell. However imperfectly "The Muster- Roll" may 
fulfil its purpose, Angus has good reason to be proud of the memories the volume 
is intended to enshrine. 

To sons and daughters of Angus upon whom has been bestowed the gift of 
expression in literature, music, or the graphic arts, of the patriotic feelings which 
have filled all British hearts concerning our soldiers during the progress of the war, 
an appeal was made for contributions to the volume. These, it was hoped, would 
be taken as giving expression to Angus's tribute to the brave sons whom she had 
given to aid the Empire in its hour of danger. The volume shows how cordial was 
the response to this appeal. 



8 PREFACE— Continued. 



The thanks of the Proinoters are, in the first place, due to H.R.H. Princess 
Louise, Duchess of Argyll, for graciously contributing the portrait of a Highlander of 
the old 93rd Regiment — now Princess Louise's Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. 

To Angus writers, artists, and composers — (their names will be found recorded 
elsewhere in the volume)— sincere thanks are due. Their generous enthusiasm so filled 
the sails of the Promoters' enterprise that from the hour of leaving port a safe and 
happy voyage-end was assured. 

Mr Henry T. VVyse, art master, Arbroath High School, supervised, with 
characteristic care and good taste, the decorative work in llie portrait pages of the 
volume. The cover of the volume was designed by Mr VVyse, and, with one exception, 
the decorative designs and borders are Mr VVyse's own or his pupils' work. Misses 
J. K. Chapel (pp 96 and 146), Helen Chapel (pp 151 and 154), J. A. Bisset (p 142), 
Marguerite R. Bennet (p 152), Ida Leslie (p 153); Messrs P. K. Hanton (p 141), Charles 
Fowler (p 149), Albert Bisset (p 150), Roy Leslie (p 155), and Charles Paterson (p 158) — 
all pupils of Mr VVyse — and Miss C. E. Dickson (p 144) contributed decorative borders. 
The Promoters desire to have recorded here their thanks to all these artists, and also 
their great indebtedness to Mr VVyse for service at once distinguished in its artistic 
excellence, and most generous in its extent, patience, and kindliness. 

To the Dowager-Countess of Airlie for liberty to reproduce a crayon sketch ol 
her son, Captain the Hon. Lyulph Ogilvy ; to the Earl of Southesk who generously 
permitted and bore the expense of the reproduction of Jameson's portrait of the 
Marquis of Montrose ; to the Countess of Strathmore who graciously provided a photo- 
graph of the fine portrait of Claverhouse in Glamis Castle; and to Mr Low, Montrose, 
for an excellent water-colour drawing of the Colours of the Angus Fencibles, thanks 
are also due. 

The collection of the portraits and information regarding Angus soldiers included 
in "The Muster-Roll" would have been impossible without the aid of friends. Colonel 
William Smith, V.D., J. P., Dundee, with characteristic tact and generosity, looked 
after Dundee and district. He took great pains to make the Dundee list as 
complete as possible ; and he gathered names of soldiers and subscribers with zeal 
which made him an invaluable "recruiting officer." To him and to his daughter, 
Miss Smith, Secretary of the Dundee Branch of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Families 
Association, " The Muster-Roil " is greatly indebted. Mr Geo. S. Nicolson, of the 
Forfar Herald; Mr James Balfour, of the Montrose Standard; Mr D. S. Edwards, of 
the Brechin Advertiser^ along with his son, Mr David Edwards, and Sergeant-Instructor 
Brown, Brechin; Rev. Mr Troup, Broughty Ferry; Mrs G. W. Baxter, Ashcliff, Dundee; 
Mrs Wilkie, Ardmore, Kirriemuir; and Lieutenant D. V\'. Fairweather, Arbroath — all 
these friends gave most valuable aid in the ingathering of information and portraits. 



PREFACE— Continued. 



In nearly every case the portraits of Officers, N on-Commissioned Officers, and 
Rank and File have been provided by the nearest relatives of the soldiers, with 
authority for their publication. In all cases where application has been made to 
photographers, copies of portraits and permission to reproduce them have been 
generously given. The thanks of the Promoters are specially due to Messrs Valen- 
tine, Watt & Son, and Robertson, Dundee; Messrs W. H. Geddes & Son and Mr 
and Mrs Anckorn, Arbroath; Mr John Carr, Montrose; Mr VV. Mayor, Forfar; the 
London Stereoscopic Company (for portrait of H. H. Prince Christian Victor) ; Mr 
C. E. Corke, Sevenoaks, London ; and to the proprietors of the Pall Mall Afagazine^ 
Black and While, the lUuslrated London News, the Lady's Pictotial^ and the Piper d 
Dujidee, In the case of a large number of soldiers no portrait was obtainable. 
In justice to the photo-etchers and the printers it may also be mentioned that a 
great many of the pliotographs were so decayed and faulty that the reproduction of 
a good portait from them was an impossibility. 

In acknowledging the multitudinous kindnesses which have attended the pro- 
motion of tlie volume, the services of some generous friends may have been overlooked. 
To all who have in any way assisted, the Promoters desire that their sincere thanks 
should be communicated. 

The liberality of a number of friends interested in "The Muster-Roll " has 
enabled the Promoters to provide a copy for the home of every Angus soldier 
mentioned in the volume. This is a result of their labours which has brought 
to the Promoters exceeding pleasure. Their supreme hope is that in the homes of 
Angus soldiers "The Muster-Roll" may keep alive many brave memories, and nourish 
the valorous love of home and kindred which is one of the best guarantees of freedom, 
strength, and unity throughout our Queen's vast dominions. 

In the discharge of his duties the Editor has been aided liberally by many 
artists, journalists, and other friends. For them he must make one more call upon 
the "exchequer of the poor" and send them "evermore thanks."

PROMOTERS' NOTE. 




IeSIDES all his editorial duties, Mr Salmond kindly undertook to express the thanks 
of the Promoters to all those who, in varying degrees, have assisted to make " The 
Muster- Roll of Angus" a success. Of his own services, however, it has naturally 
been impossible for Mr Salmond to speak, although it is mainly to these services that the 
success of " The Muster-Roll " is due. From the moment that the idea of ** The Muster- 
Roll" was conceived, until the completion of the volume, Mr Salmond, with patriotic 
ardour and unwearying assiduity, worked to bring the book into its present form ; and 
the Promoters are well aware that the number and value of the artistic and literary 
contributions contained in its pages are in no small measure due to his personal 
hifluence. 

A good cause is always safe in Mr Salmond's hands, and all who see "The 
Muster- Roll " will assuredly recognise the ability and zeal with which he has rounded off 
and finished up the book which he so generously undertook to edit. For the sake of 
those men who went forth to represent Angus in South Africa, and of those at home 
who watch and wait to do them honour, Mr Salmond willingly and ungrudgingly gave 
unnumbered days of anxious thought and of unremitting toil. No words are strong enough 
to express our personal indebtedness for his services; but it is to the gratitude of all 
who claim kinship with Angus, and are in sympathy with the spirit of " The Muster- 
Roll" that we would commend our Editor. 

July, 1900, 



Since the above lines were penned, he on whose behalf they were written has, alas ! 
passed beyond the reach of our commendation. Amongst the many memories which surround 
the making of this book, amongst the many gallant deeds therein recorded, the patient, 
quiet labour with brain and pen was in itself as fine an effort, as brave a fight as some 
of those fought in South Africa. Disinterested work such as his deserves the recompense 
of an enduring remembrance, and this it will assuredly receive from all who knew our 
late Editor.

SECOND EDITION. 




PROMOTERS' NOTE. 

|HE Second Edition of "The Muster-RoU " was originally prepared to meet the 
large demand for copies after the First Edition was exhausted. We considered 
it advisable, however, not to publish it immediately, but to wait until the 
close of the War. By doing so, we were enabled to complete the Roll by not 
merely repairing any inadvertent omissions, but by adding to it the names of men who 
served only in the latter part of the campaign. Over 1300 names have now been added. 

No pains have been spared in the endeavour to make the lists full and accurate, 
but in a number of cases it has been found impDssible to trace the soldiers, and to 
obtain correct information about their services and medals. In other cases, also, the 
medals to which they are entitled have not yet been awarded. 

We desire to take this opportunity of expressing our indebtedness to Mr Brodie for 
his assistance. After the lamented death of his partner. Mr Salmond, Mr Brodie very 
kindly undertook the onerous duties of Editor, and he has devoted much time and labour 
to the completion of the task. To Miss J. K. Chapel, Miss Helen Chapel, and Mr 
R. M. Sim, who gave designs; to the Officers of the various Regiments— too numerous 
to mention individually — who furnished information from the military records; and to 
many friends who assisted m different ways, we wish to express our gratitude in a 
sittgle werd of .thanks.

THE 

MUSTER-ROLL OF ANGUS. 



CONTRIBUTIONS BY AUTHORS AND ARTISTS. 



THE MUSTER-ROLL OF ANGUS. 



A GREEK SOLDIER'S GRAVE. 

By a. S. Murray, LL.D., F.S.A., British Museum.

^HE old Greeks were continually fighting; their poets and historians found 
inspiration in the theme of war. In their art there is more of deadly 
conflict than of anything else. Their artists, when they chose, could 
represent a battle-scene as full of horror and confusion as the most modern 
picture. Witness the fine mosaic of Pompeii in the museum of Naples, where 
the army of Alexander the Great crashes into the ranks of the Persian King, 
Darius. The strange thing is that the artists seldom chose this realistic line. 
Indeed, they went on painting and sculpturing with unrivalled genius vast groups 
of gods fighting with giants, or Greeks against Trojans, finding in these mythical 



^o The Muster- Roll of Angus. 



or legendary scenes of times long past, subjects in which they might well be 
excused for not introducing the harrowing details of actual war, for the good 
reason that no details were to be had. Many of tlie best of the Greek works 
of art are of this kind, and as a rule they are now regarded with indifference, 
so far as their meaning is concerned, or the story they tell, while the artistically far 
inferior battle-scene of Alexander against Darius strikes the spectator with horror. 

Yet it was not from indifference that the greatest of the Greek artists 
chose to avoid the confusion and turmoil which they knew to be incidental to 
actual war. Had that been their spirit the public would have resented it soon 
enough. Nor was it from want of skill. The explanation must be sought else- 
where ; and possibly the drawing here given from one of our vases may help us. 
A young man has fallen in war, and, like so many others, then as now, was 
buried on the field of battle. His friends at home needed no picture of the 
dreadful reality to deepen their grief. They would rather listen to some great 
orator like Pericles, who would tell them how ** the whole country was the grave 
of those who fell in war." There was no consolation for them in art, except 
by the means of imagery, such as that of our vase, where the two winged gods. 
Death and Sleep, carry the young man's body away to his home, and lower it 
beside an imaginery tomb prepared for him. The painter knew how Homer had 
described Death and Sleep carrying off the body of Sarpedon from the field of 
Troy to his home in Lycia to be buried in a grave, with a tombstone over 
him, "for such is the guerdon of those who die;" and we in our time find 
almost the same imagery in the famous words of John Bright during the Crimean 
War: — "The angel of Death has been abroad throughout the land; you may 
almost hear the beating of his wings." Let us therefore, in remembering the 
dead who have fallen in this war, think of them in the kindly Greek manner as 
being carried to their long home by winged beings as in our picture— Death, 
grim and bearded with streaming hair ; Sleep, youthful and gentle. 

In our calamities of war we look to our religion for consolation, and 
doubtless the Greeks did the same in a less degree. But they were far more 
dependent on their poets and artists than we are for the interpretation of the 
mysteries of life and death. They did not want from their artists accurate 
pictures of what took place — the barest description was enough for that. What 
they longed for was that their emotions — saddened as they were by the actual 
facts of war— should be raised to a higher level by means of imagery. To my 
mind, it was that deep and ever true impulse of the human heart which led the 
Greeks to seek consolation in times of war from the old myths and legends. 



The Muster- Roll of Angus. 21 

Once the idea of winged beings carrying off the dead from the battle- 
field had taken firm hold of the Greek imagination, it was easy for poets to 
vary it, and to invent a new legend, in which, instead of Death and Sleep, we have 
Boreas, the blustering North Wind, and Zephyros, the soft West Wind, carrying the 
body of Memnon from the plain of Troy, where he fell, to his distant home in 
Central Africa. In early Christian art under the Roman Empire, the old Greek 
idea is again modified, and takes the form of two angels, bearing the body of 
an Emperor to the skies to be received by a divine assembly waiting for liim. 
That is what we see on an ivory diptych in the British Museum of the year 
476 A.D. The two angels are clearly our old friends. Death and Sleep. 

Another idea of the Greeks was: Charon in his boat waiting among the 
reeds of Acheron to ferry the shades of the departed to the farther shore. 
In a picture by the greatest of the fresco-painters, Charon was figured as an 
old man at the oars, the water muddy, and the fish in it more like shadows 
than alive ; and doubtless this was a source of inspiration to the minor artists 
whose occupation it was to paint vases for the dead, to be placed in the tombs. 
But on one of the paintings of this kind which we possess in the British 
Museum, the aged ferryman is standing in the stern of the boat and beckoning 
to a girl, who seems to hesitate, beside the reeds. It is only seldom that we 
find a scene of actual sorrow, such as the anguish of a mother over her dead 
child. Yet, to our notions, pictures of that nature would perhaps have been 
more appropriate on vases intended to be placed in or on tombs. 

Here and there arhong the remains of Greek sculpture of the best age we 
find a monument in honour of someone who had fallen in battle, representing 
him engaged in combat. An instance familiar to those who have visited Athens 
is a tombstone still standing in the ancient cemetery in memory of a young 
man who had been slain in a cavalry charge at Corinth, B.C. 494. He is figured 
in the act of striking down one of the enemy. It is only from the inscription 
that we learn of his own death during the engagement. How he fell was doubt- 
less well known to his relatives. But that is not indicated in any way by the 
artist. Indeed, without the inscription no one would suppose the sculpture to be 
other than a legendary group, like so many of the battle-scenes which fortunately 
still survive from the great age of Greek art.

The Muster-Roll of Angus. 23 

THE DYING SOLDIER. 

By the Earl of Southesk, K.T. 




SOLDIER lay at the foot of a stone, 

In a pitiful plight .was he, 
For a rifle bullet had found a bone, 

And smashed the pan of his knee. 

So there on the hard, rough ground he lay, 

Nor stirred to better his ill, 
For the enemy lurked not far away, 

And their bullets kept him still. 

Low down in a trench they crouched concealed ; 

For, although they had held their ground. 
The murderous guns from our batteries pealed. 

And shells came dropping round. 

He lifted his head, — then bullets sped. 

That ruffled his helmet's crown, 
While some, from the rocks that around him spread. 

Brought battered fragments down. 

And one keen bullet went straight to its mark 

Through his sound leg, barely seen ; 
So he drew himself close, and lay quiet and stark 

In the bounds of his narrow screen. 

From the rise of the morn till the sunset's hour 

No help and no comfort came. 
And the fangs of cramp, with a growing power. 

Were gnawing his limbs and frame. 

The morning's mist had been dank and chill ; 

But when sunshine burst the haze 
It glowed like a furnace all over the hill. 

And parched him in its blaze. 



24 The Muster- Roll of Angus. 



For a while he knew of nothing but pain, 

Or, fainting, respite found ; 
Of a sudden his thoughts were his own again, 

Though they whirled in a mazy round. 

One laugh he laughed, and he moaned one moan, 

Then quiet as death he lay, 
And he thought that his body was turning to stone, — 

And then he tried to pray. 

" Have mercy, O Lord ! " — He could thus begin. 
But no words beyond these would come ; 

For so long had he revelled in reckless sin 
That his inner soul was dumb. 

Again he tried, and again and again ; 

Then he raved in dark despair, 
" Lost, lost for ever : my prayers are vain, 

God has no heart to care." 

The sun went away, and down dropped night, 

And nought could be seen or heard. 
Save where distant camp-fires shed their light, 

And where wounded groaned or stirred ; 

Or when ghostly grey figures, slim as breath, 

Crept round in a corpse-light clear — 
The spirits of some who had fallen in death. 

Whose bodies were scattered near. 

But the wounded man was so crushed by pain 

That his soul had no room for dread ; 
Though thoughts without number revolved in his brain 

All else was torpid and dead. 

Then again once more he betook him to prayer. 

Though he found not the ease he sought 
He was raised from the dungeon of blank despair, 

And he talked with himself in thought. 

"Tm an outcast," thought he, "as I know full well. 

With no hold on a life-giving faith ; 
I was born to the world an apprentice of hell. 

Under bond to the devil and death. 



The MusieV'Roll of Angus. 25 



"How oft said my father — *This Scripture is true — 

Until saving faith comes in, 
There is nothing, my lad, we can purpose or do 

That is not tainted with sin. 

"*A man may strive proudly to merit God's love, 

And be honest and rightly behaved ; 
But unless, through free grace, he is born from above, 

He has not a chance to be saved.' 

" Then it's useless to try, and a trouble to sham, 

Said I — and I went to the bad. 
Oh ! to think what I might be, and know what I am — 

This thinking is driving me mad ! 

" And now in the darkness I linger in pain, 

And I live with my thoughts alone ; — 
Yet not quite lonely, for now and again 

I can hear the wounded groan. 

" But oh ! to be home — and to breathe once more 

Sweet airs from the heather in blow, 
And to see the old manse, and the yews at the door, 

And the glint of the river below ; 

"And the pleasant fir woods on the banks above. 

Where the yellow broom grows high ; 
Where I met with my lass and we plighted our love — 

Alas, what a traitor was I ! 

** Could she look on me now, she would come to my side, 

And her gentle tears would fall. 
Would she think of her wrongs, or remember her pride? 

She would pity, and pardon me all. 

"O mother, O mother, my heart is sore. 

What worlds would I give but to know 
I should see you again, and should listen once more 

To your voice so soft and low. 

"What though my life be evil and black, 

Though all should banish your child, 
You never would drive your darling back — 

Blest mother, sweet and mild ! 



26 The Muster-Roll of Angus. 

"But, what of my father, that stern old man — 

Could I dare to brave his sight? 
In the pulpit how harshly I've heard him ban 

Bold haters of God's light, 

"And have seen the hard smile that his features wore 
When he mocked mere fools that sin. 

Grim as he is, rf I stood at the door 
I know he would let me in. 

** He would mutter a text from the * Prodigal Son,' 
To repress the kind words from his heart ; 

He would not embrace me, whatever was done, 
But he would not say — 'Depart' 

"And sweet mother — how well I can picture her face, 

Her tears of compassion and love. 
Oh> why on this earth should we meet with such grace, 

And with nought but damnation above!" 

He sighed. Then a voice in his soul did say — 
* Should your father be deaf to your prayer. 

If, wasted and weary, you sought him some day, 
And prayed for forgiveness and care ; 

'Should your mother but turn from you, bitter and dry, 

As you there imploring her stood, — 
Would men, would the angels, would God on high 

Declare such dealings good?* 

" Good ? — Yes, very good — on the devil's plan ; 

But would Christians reckon it right 
If you drove from your door a poor penitent man 

To perish in the night? 

•'And if wrought by a father to ruin his son, 

What a hateful deed it would be." 
Then a light through his spirit appeared to run — 

** I was blind — now I see, I see ! 

"Oh, how could I think that God most great, 
Whom the heights and the depths obey, 

Is less good than the men that His hands create. 
Frail creatures of a day ! " 



The Muster-Roll of Angus. 



And at once he saw, as the truest of things — 

Deny it those who would — 
That the God from whose being all goodness springs 

Must be Himself all-good. 

Then over his soul came a calm so deep 
Then he ceased to remember his pain, 

In the arms of the angels he seemed to sleep, 
And in quiet bliss remain. 

And, as if in a dream, to himself he said — 

'* Oh, thus 'twould be sweet to stay ; 
But, as soon as my body is cold and dead. 

They will bear my soul away. 

•* They will bear me to realms where all is bright. 

Far over the arch of the sky. 
And set me in face of the throne of light 

Where God doth reign on high. 

'' I will stand like a man, in that radiance clear, 

As a Scottish soldier should ; 
Not crouch like a coward — I never must fear, 

For I know that God is good. 

" I will say to the Lord — for His might is so great 

He will pity my might so small — 
* Have mercy, O Lord, when Thou fixest my state, 

As Thou art Father of all. 

" * O, Father, most holy, though still Thy son, 

It is meet that I now should go, 
For evil wrought and for good undone, 

To anguish, toils, and woe. 

" * But I ask Thee — I ask in that Saviour's name 

Who on man's earth has stood. 
Who bore, for love of us, pain and shame. 

And taught us Thou art good — 

"•Consign me not to an evil place, 

To dwell with Thine outcast foes, — 
I ask it, Lord, from Thy boundless grace — 

Let me not dwell with those. 



28 The Mtistev'Roll of Angus. 

" ' Grant me some place, where, through my pains, 
I may learn to serve Thee well — 

Far, far fiom heaven, where glory reigns, 
But far, O Lord, from hell. 

" * I could not live where the angels stay, 
For my soul is black and scored ; 

But I hate the fiends that have wrecked my way. 
And Thee I love, O Lord/" 



Cold, cold was the night, and, as hours went on, 

The fires of his life burnt low ; 
His heart ceased beating, all sense was gone, 

His soul was free to go. 

No more could he think about earthly things. 

But his spirit still could pray. 
Then angels sought him, on gentle wings, 

And led his soul away. 



Bright rises morn, and the voices of war 
Break loud on the mountain's marge. 

The rifles rattle, the cannon roar. 
The Gordons head the charge. 

With steel they carried that trench on the hill ; 

And, in searching the front of the place. 
They came on their comrade, pale, rigid, and chill, 

God's sunshine on his face. 



THE GALLANT GORDONS. 

Forth to the front the Gordons go. 

Filled with joy, to seek the foe ; 

Marching lightly on with gay and easy swing. 

While the pibrochs float above their van like eagles on the wing. 



The Muster- Roll of Angus. 



29 



On to the hill the Gordons go, 
Fired with joy, to find the foe ; 
Up through the rocks, nor stop to draw a breath, 
Though the bullets yell around their heads and strew 
ground with death. 



the 



Into the trench the Gordons go, 

Mad with joy, to meet the foe ; 

Drive them out with steel, and smash them hand to hand — 

Tis the only trick the treacherous knaves can never understand. 

* Bydand, bydand/ the Gordons stay. 
To hold the hill at the close of day. 
Many have been wounded, and many have been slain. 
But their glory shall be * bydand' bright, while Scotland 
doth remain.

SOLDIER AND STOIC. 

By R. Neish. 




^HERE was a curious contrast between those who were leaving and 
those who were left. 

The soldiers were in great spirits, their hearts beating high with 
hope and anticipation ; but the women, although they made valiant efforts to 
appear gay and cheery, had some difficulty, now that the moment of parting 
had actually come, in keeping back their tears. Even the men's faces grew 
momentarily grave and anxious as they exchanged a last greeting, or mur- 
mured a farewell word ; but they soon grew cheerful and eager again, and it 
seemed as though all the bitterness of the sorrow fell, as it ever does, on those 
who were left. 

There was, however, one striking exception to this rule, for an old General 
stood positively beaming, as he bade a last good-bye to his only son. "You're 
in luck's way, my boy," he said heartily, " in luck's way ; and I only wish I 
were going with you." 

" I wish you were, sir," replied his son as heartily. " Remember me to 
all the boys at Redford when you go north to Angus. Tell them I'll be 
back hale and hearty for the Twelfth ! Good-bye, dad !" 

" Right you are — good-bye and good luck to you," called the General ; 
and with another warm hand-clasp — a little closer perhaps this time — they 
separated. 

A few hours later the stately transport, the "Bristol Castle," was slowly 
gliding seawards, and General Ogilvy was speeding back to town. 

He sat in a corner of the railway carriage, staring aimlessly out of the 
window, his eyes still soft with love and pride, but his lips set in a grim 
determination to suppress a strange sinking at his heart. 

A melancholy-faced man, seated opposite to him, leant forward and said 
deferentially to the old soldier — " It is a sad thing to lose one's son, sir." 



The Muster- Roll of Angus. 33 



He spoke with a deprecating smile, for the General did not look either genial 
or inclined to talk. 

" Lose him — why should you lose him ?'* asked General Ogilvy, turning 
irately towards him. 

"One never knows," answered the melancholy man; "and one instinctively 
fears the worst in these days.*' 

"I don't know why one should fear the worst in these days more than 
in any other days," said the General, stiffly. 

" He is my only son," replied his companion, slowly. 

"My only son has gone too, sir,*' said the General, almost fiercely, "and 
my only regret is that I haven't half-a-dozen of 'em to send." Here he 
glanced half-contemptuously at the melancholy-faced man. " And as to snivelling 
about it, why, d — n it, sir, we'll leave that to the women." 

" Ah ! my dear sir ; you take a soldier's view. 1 am not a soldier, and 
I cannot lay claim to the qualities of the stoic. I am only a lonely, idle 
man, and my son is everything to me." 

"Is he?" replied the General unsympathetically. "Well, I'm happy to 
say that my son is everything to his Queen and to his country." 



General Ogilvy had left his club, and was being driven rapidly down 
Piccadilly homewards, when suddenly the hoarse cry of the newspaper-vendor 
resounded on every side of him. " H'orful disaster to the British — great 
slaughter — eleven guns lost — great disaster ! " 

The General set his mouth grimly, and put his cane up through the 
little door. " Paper," he said, laconically ; and the driver pulled up with a 
jerk at the corner of the street. " Here you are, sir ; H'Echo, Sun, Evenivg 
News, Star, sir?" 

" Anything you like, confound you," said the General ; and snatching the 
first paper handy, threw the boy a shilling. He opened the Evening News 
with a hand that shook in spite of his stern self-control, and looked eagerly 
down the list of killed and wounded. Seeing him so absorbed, the newspaper 
boy, taking his chance, looked up at the driver and said with ready wit 
" Right you are, cabby," and turned to secure another customer. 

The cabman drove on, and the General continued to pore over his 
paper. " Not even a scratch," he muttered at last, and breathed more freely ; 
and then, with sudden recollection, put his cane through the little door again, 



34 The Muster Roll of Angus. 



" Here, where the devil are you driving to ?" he spluttered angrily. " Where's 
my change ?" 

The cabman, aghast at having been so easily taken in, rapidly pursued 
the small boy, and came up to him as he was demanding twopence from a 
luckless old lady for a half-penny paper. 

'* Here, you scoundrel," cried the General angrily, " where's my change ? 
I've a good mind to give you in charge." 

" Beg parding, sir. It was the cabby's fault, sir. Tried to foller you, sir ; 
but couldn't catch him up. Thank you, sir;" and the boy ruefully handed up 
his ill-gotten gains. 

The cabman dropped a volley of curses, and raised his whip threateningly, 
but the boy ran off. " A head for emergencies, that boy ; he'd make a good 
soldier," muttered the General, and became absorbed in his paper again. 

A month later, General Ogilvy sat in his study, grim and defiant, grimly 
facing life and possible disappointment, and defying a curious instinct of coming 
sorrow. As he sat there, a man calling lustily in the street below, paused 

under his window. " Great — British — Victory ! Capture of the " A passing 

vehicle drowned the last sentence. ''Great British Victory — 3 Orficcrs wounded. 
— Casuality List — Death of Major Ogilvy — Great British Victory ! " The General 
.sat rigidly grasping the arm of his chair. Perhaps, perhaps, he had not caught 
the name correctly; besides there might easily be two or even three Ogilvys. 
He would have rung the bell, but a sharp pain in his side that had greatly 
troubled him lately prevented his moving. Suddenly the door opened, and the 
old housekeeper, who had been with him for many years, stumbled rather than 
walked into the room. 

"Sir," she stammered piteously, "the Major — Master Jack!" and the paper 
dropped from her trembling hand to the General's feet. 

On the following morning General Ogilvy came slowly downstairs. The 
pain in his side had been insistent during the whole of the long night, and 
his step tottered slightly as he crossed the hall. He opened the library door 
and steadied himself for a moment against a chair — his son's favourite arm- 
chair. The blinds were down, and the room was dimly lit by one electric 
light. He looked vaguely round, and then, pulling himself together, rang the 
bell sharply. 



The Musier-Roll of Angus. 35 



The butler came in and stood waiting in the doorway. " Who pulled 
these blinds down ? " asked the General, pointing towards the window as he 
spoke. 

The man stared at him. 

"Why don't you answer?'* he asked, angrily. "Who put these blinds 
down, and what for — eh ? " 

The man looked at him in amazement, not unmixed with anxiety. "Sir, 
the — the Major ! ** he stammered and became abruptly silent. He could not 
conceive that his master had forgotten his son's death. Surely the trouble had 
unhinged his mind, he thought ; and took a hasty step forward. 

" Well, and what of the Major ? " said the General drawing himself stiffly 
erect, and only laying his hand involuntarily on his left side for a moment 
as he did so. " What of the Major, Barnes } Do you think we are going to 
mourn for him? Hasn't he died a glorious death, and aren't we proud of him 
— eh ? Haven't we heard him say a hundred times, when he fired his little 
gun in the woods at Redford, and drilled the gardener's children on the lawn, 
that he would be a brave soldier — eh? Wasn't he a brave boy, Barnes? and 
hasn't he died as a brave man — worthy of Angus and of the Ogilvys — eh ? 
We are proud — proud, I tell you. You can go and pull up the blinds 

everywhere, for there shall be no whining in this house — go, go " He 

moved his hand peremptorily. The man hurriedly withdrew, and had 
barely left the room before General Ogilvy sank with a wholly irrepressible 
moan of pain into his son's favourite chair. 

" Great British Victory — List of yesterday's casualties — Great Victory " 



The hoarse cries rang up and down the long empty street, for it was late in 
the evening. 

" He's been looking very queer all day," said the butler, as he stood for 
a moment in the doorway of the housekeeper's room ; " and he hardly touched 
his dinner, although he took everything I offered him — for he's a 'ero, that's 
what he is ; or, if he ain't, the Lord Almighty alone knows what a 'ero is." 

" Go down and see if he wants anything now," said the housekeeper 
anxiously ; " I don't like the look of him at all." 

The butler went downstairs and softly opened the library door. 

The General was sitting in his son's chair by the fire, and did not move 
as the man came in. 

"Great British Victory— Great Bri— tish "

'* Is there anything I can get you before I lock up. sir ? " It was an 
unusual request. 

The General shook his head impatiently. "What is — it they — are — saying?" 
he asked, slowly, '* I can't quite make out what they are saying." 

The voices came nearer, rang out less huskily — Great British Victory ! 
Great " 

" Ah, I hear now," muttered the General and smiled faintly. " Another 
victory isn't it, Barnes } " 

The butler, alarmed at the ghastliness of his face, hurriedly cro.ssed the 
room and bent over his chair. 

" Sir," he cried, anxiously, " what is it ? Are you feeling ill ? " 

He looked eagerly into the ashen, smiling face, and, bending closer, cried 
tremblingly, " What is it, sir — what is it t " 

There was no answer !

[translationJ 



^ hAIL, great-Iuarted children of a glorious land, valiant offspring of valiant 
^ Ij i^ sires, a thousand sons, the pride of Angus, Mother of the Brave, who 
has sent you forth, steadfast of spirit, in the dread stress of war I 
Often lias the North seen the high deeds of your fathers, in peace or on the 
stricken field : and now at the other Pole from the circling paths of the Bear, 
the Southern Cross beholds your deeds of prowess. Your ways are ou the plains 
of Libya, and over her rugged hills, and by the banks of hostile rivers; ye 
shrink from no hardship, nor, if Heaven calls, from laying down your strong 
bright lives in the front of the battle. 

But often, I ween, amidst the toils of warfare, or when t/te soldier has 
sunk to rest on Libyan soil. Memory brings to him, in the gentle promptings of 
dreams, a vision of his otvn Northern Land, He seems to look on the snow- 
mantled heights of the Grampians, or to move by the fair ivaters of the Brothock ; 
where an Abbey, goal of many a vow, was founded of old by that King who 
bore tlu name and the heart of a Lion ; and he dedicated the shrine to Thomas, 
zvho perished near the hallowed altar by the onset of an unholy band. And 
there he laid up a war-banfter within the sanciuar)', a mystic wonder for men 
who should come after, a relic of that holy man who lived in the shelter of 
sea-girt lona, whose soothing spell ivas felt by all zvho dzvelt around. That 
banner waved oifer the warriors of the Abbey ivken they conquered in the fight 
by the Bannock, And tell, O Muse, how the barons, the flower of Scottish 
chivalry, came together to that Abbey of yore, and their victorious King, presiding 
among his chieftains, sent a message on this wise to the Pontiff of Rome: 
" Know t/iat Scotsmen ivill never yield, while breath is in them, to the behest 
of a foreign master. Not power, not wealth is dearest to brave men, but freedom, 
the crown of all that life can give'* 



40 



The Muster- Roll of Angus, 



And now, it is in Freedom's cause, as Justice is our witness, that we are 
warring on the Libyan fields, Angus, thy renown shines aneiv, bright as of old : 
thy children have shown their mettle and their breed ! Where is that house, 
among all thy noblest, that has not given its sons, kindlers of battle, to the ranks 
of our heroes — horse, or foot, or leaders of seamen — eager to do their duty by the 
land that bare them ? Of whom some were within that famous town where 
brave succour came at last to brave defence. 



Naiads who haunt the fountains of Angus,— for ye, O nymphs, are not 
forgetful of the past, — is there another sound in the whispering of the waters, 
from which ye darkly learn the fate of mortals, creatures of a day, — is the voice 
of tlu streams changed in your ears from the time when they fUnved by the 
paths of our fathers, — when Bannockburn saw Scotland's armed array close in battle 
with the host of England? No more is Britain rent in twain by strife: the 
dwellers on the Border live no more in fear of sleepless war. One love, one 
loyalty^ one spontaneous ardour bids all to work for the common welfare of their 
country. So is it seen from North to South, in the East and in the West: the 
Mother-land is one in spirit with her sons beyond the seas ; and^ honoured as 
no other Lady upon the Earth, our Queen reigns in tlu hearts of all.

"DECEMBER, 189 9. 



By Lady Arabella Romilly. 



n 




HEN the Angel of Death stands by me, 
And asks me, "What have you done 
In this life of labour and trial ? " 
I shall answer " I gave my son— 
I gave my flesh to my country, 

I gave myself to the foe ; 
For I gave the child born of me ; 
And do we not reap as we sow ?" 



My blood has sprinkled God's country — 

God's country as much as this — 
For in His eyes every country 

And each mother's son is His. 
And the wails of the desolate mothers 

Rise to the foot of His Throne ; 
For to every mother, God knoweth, 

Hers is an only son !

The Master Roll of Angus, 47 



"THE BOYS OF THE OLD BRIGADE." 

The Angus Volunteers of the Napoleonic Period. 
By J. M. M^Bain, F.S.A. Scot. 



IN the brave old days when King Robert Bruce was making Scotland a 
nation, in no quarter of the country — as the records of those who answered 
his call to Bannockburn show — did he find more patriotic support than in 
Angus. Nor can it ever be forgotten that it was from the memorable 
Parliament which was held in 1320 in the Regality Chamber of Arbroath Abbey 
there went forth that famous Declaration of Independence, the reading of 
which, it was said, made Pope John XXII. tremble. Through the intervening 
years our Maules, Lindsays, Ogilvys, Carnegies, Ouchterlonys, Duncans, Lyons, 
and Raits, as well as the rank and file of our fighting men, have done deeds 
of daring on field and flood. The sons of Angus have shewn themselves as 
ready to-day as their sires were of old to lay down their lives in defence of 
the honour of our much-loved Empire. 

The "Muster-Roll of Angus" carries the memory back to the stirring 
times when the aggressive wars of France which followed the Revolution of 
1789, threatening the safety of Britain, made her look to her means of national 
defence. Then, as now, the spirit of patriotism — voiced in 1320 by the Warrior 
Abbot of Aberbrothock — which still burns in the bosom of the men of Angus, 
was manifested in the enthusiasm with which they responded to the call to 
arms. From every town, village, and district, and from every mansion house 
and farm-steading in the county, the men of Forfarshire gave ample proof of 
their loyalty to their King and their devotion to their country. The magistrates 
and prominent citizens in each of the burghs took the lead in organising and 
equipping corps of Volunteers, which were quickly formed into divisional 
regiments, and so were prepared to present a bold front to any foe who dared 
to plant his foot on British soil. 



48 The Muster-Roll of Angus. 



Dundee entered into the movement with that vigour which still characterises 
her citizens. From January, 1797, to July, 1805, the Town Council minutes bear 
ample evidence of the thoroughness with which that body, as representative of 
the community, took up the work of organisation. On 31st January, 1797. under 
the presidency of Provost Riddoch, the Council, after giving expression to their 
thorough appreciation of the important purposes to be served by the institution 
of a Corps of Volunteers, unanimously resolved to recommend to the inhabitants of 
Dundee in the strongest terms to join the /Corps. And they further resolved 
" that the persons who have already entered, or may enter, with the Volunteers 
in this place, and who are not Freemen, shall be entitled to the freedom of the 
Burgh during their lives." Dundee was not alone in offering the freedom of the 
Burgh to the members of the Volunteer Corps ; the Town Councils of Arbroath, 
Brechin, Montrose, and Forfar came to the same resolution ; and in those days of 
close civic government this was no small honour. But not content with the 
formation of one Corps, the Town Council of Dundee, at a meeting held on the 
nth March following, unanimously resolved to make offer to the Government to 
raise an additional Corps to be called "The Dundee Second Volunteer Corps;" 
this Corps to consist of three hundred men, to be divided into six companies, 
and to be commanded by officers to be recommended by the Magistrates and 
Town Council. Within six weeks thereafter the Provost was in a position to 
announce that His Majesty had been graciously pleased to accept of the six 
additional Volunteer Companies offered by the Council. The Council at once 
set to work to have the requisite number of men enrolled. In this they had 
considerable success, for the Committee appointed to carry out the Council's 
resolution was able within a fortnight to report that there had already been two 
hundred and fifty men enrolled. While the members of the Council were thus 
active in beating up recruits, they were equally willing to volunteer their own 
services, and so it came about that the bulk of the first officers of " the Second 
or Light Infantry Dundee Volunteer Corps" — as it was resolved to designate it — 
were drawn from amongst the Town Councillors of that time. The nominations 
made by the Council were submitted through the Lord Lieutenant of the County, 
and in due course the following officers of the Light Infantry Corps were 
gazetted, viz. : — Lieut.-Colonel A. Riddoch ; Major Wm. Scott ; Captains Thomas 
Webster, Alex. Balfour, J. Allison, J. Strachan, T. Webster, jr., and A. Peddie ; 
Lieutenants John Guild, David Martin, James Edgar, John Crichton, Alex. Blyth, 
John Souter, William Small, Hen. Blyth, jr., and J. Webster, jr. The officers 
of the first-formed corps were— Lieut-Colonel James Mylne ; Major Robert Duff; 



The Miisier-Roll of Angtis, 49 



Captains Sir A. Douglas, Jas. Johnstone, Pat. Stirling, Thomas Bell ; Lieutenants 
Wm. Lindsay, Wm. Pitcairn, James Mitchell, Andrew M'Kenzie, Robert Stirling, 
Wm. Webster, David Brown, George Blair, and James Keith. 

While townsmen of all ranks were willing to give their personal services, 
the Council were not niggardly with pecuniary help. At a meeting held in 
February, 1798, they resolved to subscribe ;^6oo — " towards the defence of our 
native country whose very existence as a nation is at present threatened by 
our determined and inveterate enemies." So the minute runs. Nor were the 
other towns in the County in loyalty a whit behind their bigger neighbour. 
While Dundee was busy enrolling members in its two corps, Arbroath was 
equally active in mustering her loyal sons. A large number of townsmen were 
speedily enrolled, the officers, as in the case of Dundee, being chiefly drawn 
from the Town Council. The Arbroath Companies were under command of 
Provost Balfour with the rank of Major, the other officers being Captains John 
Colvill, Charles Low, William Mill, and John Airth, with Lieutenants William 
Colville, Grant, Hennip, P. Sturrock, J. Lumgair, with John Nicoll as Adjutant. 
The Montrose Corps was under command of Lieutenant - Colonel A. Gardiner, 
with whom were Major A. Lyall, Captains Edward Green, A. Paterson, John 
Glegg, Lieutenants William Gibson, Alexander Scott, Alexander Thom, John 
Napier, Robert Webster, Andrew Millar, Robert Walker, and Charles Middleton. 
The Forfar Companies were officered by Captain William Don, Lieutenants 
William Adam, Robert Carrick, and Charles Webster, while Brechin had a 
similar corps under the command of Major Colin Gillies. These, so far as we 
can make out, were the officers of the Volunteer Corps of Angus as raised 
in 1797. 

These Volunteer Corps, besides being furnished by the Government with 
clothing and arms, were also paid a shilling for each turn-out. As to their dress, 
their coats were scarlet, the cloth being of a rather finer texture than that 
of the soldiers of the line ; but for this quality they had to contribute a 
certain part of their pay. Their cross-belts were well pipe-clayed ; their head- 
gear being the same as that of the line. Their hair was powdered, and down 
behind hung queues rolled in ribbons of silk with a tuft at the termination. 

After considerable negotiations the Peace of Amiens brought a truce to 
Volunteering ; but this was only for a very short time. In 1803 it became 
known that Napoleon Bonaparte had formed a design to invade Britain, and 
once again the call to arms resounded throughout the land, and was every- 
where enthusiastically responded to. It was stated in Parliament on the 9th 



so The Muster- Roll of Angzis. 



December, 1803, that the Volunteer Force of Great Britain at that date 
numbered 379,943, while the force in Ireland numbered 70,000. 

Again the men of Angus flocked to the standard. The Dundee Town 
Council, on the application of Colonel Riddoch and Colonel Mylne, agreed to 
pay each of them the sum of £<fi in aid of their respective regiments, and at 
the same time the Magistrates showed their interest in the defensive operations 
by voting money for similar purposes. Bounties were provided by the Council 
to induce able-bodied seamen residing in or belonging to the town or parish of 
Dundee "to enter with Captain Laird, Regulating Officer at Dundee for His 
Majesty's sloop * Minorca,* commanded by the Hon. Captain Henry Duncan, son 
of the late Viscount Duncan, or for any other ship to which Captain Duncan 
may be appointed." 

Arbroath came forward with four companies of sixty men each, under the 
command of John Colvill, the Town Clerk, as Lieutenant-Colonel, and Provost 
Mill, banker, as Major. The Brechin men were commanded by Lieutenant- 
Colonel Molison, the then Provost of the ancient city, and the Forfar contingent 
by Major Don. 

While each corps was busily engaged with its own training, occasional joint 
drills were held for the practising of battalion movements. Now and then sham 
fights were engaged in. It may be interesting to recall one of these held at 
Arbroath, the combatants being the Forfar, Brechin, and Arbroath corps. Colonel 
Molison, of the Brechin contingent — who, in his younger days, had been a captain 
of the Royal Marines — having a fine military air, and being minus an arm 
lost in a duel, had a rather veteran - like appearance. The opposing forces 
met on the Arbroath Common. There was neither artillery nor cavalry on the 
ground. The Forfarians were the proud possessors of two howitzers, but they 
were either too lumbering to draw or too precious to be trusted so far from the 
county town. Skirmishing was kept up in vigorous style till the order was given 
for the Arbroathians to retreat, which, under cover of the Light Company, they 
did, taking up a position behind a low dyke which then separated the lands of 
Hospital field from the West Common. The Brechiners were ordered to charge, and 
Colonel Molison, proceeding in advance of his men to reconnoitre, peeped over the 
dyke, when he was greeted with the contents of an Arbroath musket, which 
fairly winged him, not of his other arm, but of the one side of his whiskers, thus 
constituting the only " casuality " of the day. Colonel Molison was grandfather 
of the late Major-General Smith, who resided for several years at Kelly Castle. 
Provost Molison afterwards held the post of Lieutenant-Colonel Commandant of 



The Muster-Roll of Angus, Si 



the Forfarshire Militia. Indeed, many of the officers who commenced service in 
an Angus Volunteer regiment, afterwards had commissions in the local militia or 
in the Angus Fencibles. 

While the duties were exacting and sometimes irksome to our civilian- 
soldiers, previously unaccustomed to the strict routine of a military life, that 
life was not altogether destitute of amusing incidents. Sir Walter Scott, 
in the " Antiquary," describes a false alarm at " Fairport," when the 
Volunteers are beat '* to arms," and everything is bustle and excitement ; 
when men of every rank, from the Earl of Glenallan to old Muckle- 
backet, are seen hurrying to and fro in active preparation to meet the coming 
enemy. The scene which Sir Walter so exquisitely conjures up was suggested 
by the following real incident in the experience of the Arbroath Volunteer 
corps. One evening after they had finished drill, and had been dismissed, 
some vessels were observed in the offing, which, seen through the fog, appeared 
to be of much larger dimensions than they were in reality. Taking advantage 
of this, the officers determined to try the mettle of their men. The drums 
beat to arms, and the bugles were heard in every street. In an incredibly 
short space of time the corps was under arms, ready to dare everything in 
defence of their King and country. The roll was called, and, with the 
exception of two, all the members of the corps responded to their names. 
But where were these craven loons } The one, who was a sort of limb of 
the law — a sheriff-officer or messenger-at-arms— had hid himself underneath his 
bed. A neighbour wife, whose guidman had gallantly "gone to the front," 
called on the ** shirra officer's " better-half that they might condole with each other 
on the danger to which their two valiant spouses were at the moment believed 
to be exposing themselves. While wiping a tear out of her eye with the corner 
of her apron, she stumbled over the feet of the cowardly carle, who in his fright 
had forgotten to haul in his lubberly limbs. The other was a weaver in East 
Abbey Street, who, hearing the call to arms, threw his musket into a draw- 
well, took to his heels, and, making for the Magungie Woods, there remained 
till all danger was over. Meantime, the fog clearing away, "the enemy" was 
found to be two flax-laden vessels on their peaceful passage from Riga to Dundee, 
which had to wait in the offing till the clouds rolled by. 

This was not the only incident in the history of the Angus Volunteers 
which furnished the novelist with material to ** adorn a tale." " Delta," in his 
" Mansie Waugh," makes Mansie the hero of an amusing adventure. Here too 
the story, as Dr Moir tells it, is founded on fact, the incident having actually 



52 The Musler-Roll of Angus, 



occurred in the case of a Brechin Volunteer while drilling on the Links at 

Montrose. Colonel Molison had noticed one of his men, Geordie D , regularly 

obeying the word " load," but when this was followed by the order " fire " the 
trigger was never drawn. In this way eight charges found a lodging in the 
barrel of Geordie's gun. This was more than the Colonel could stand, so raising 
his voice he fiercely ordered the offender to discharge his musket. This Geordie 
tremblingly did, causing the barrel to burst, but happily with no worse result 
than the knocking down of the nervous Volunteer. The Colonel and the other 
officers rushed up to the fallen figure, expecting to find him mortally wounded, 
but Geordie, energetically waving his hand to prevent their approach, roared out: 
" Stand back, sirs, stand back ; there's seven as gweed to come yet ! " 

Besides doing their usual drills, the Volunteers were called out for a con- 
tinuous military exercise of twenty-one days. During this period they were 
generally marched to and stationed at some of the neighbouring towns. In 
Lamb*s " Dundee : Its Quaint and Historic Buildings," under the subject 
" Dudhope Castle," is given a list of all the regiments that occupied it when 
used as barracks, and on two occasions the Forfarshire Volunteers are recorded 
as being quartered there : — ** Forfarshire Volunteers, 4th Battalion (Dundee), 357 
men; Lieutenant-Colonel Riddocli, Major Wm. Scott; entered quarters, 1804, 
February 22nd ; left, 1804, April 2Sth." " Forfarshire Volunteers, ist Battalion 
(Arbroath), 300 men ; Lieutenant-Colonel John Colvill ; entered quarters, 1804, 
April 2Sth ; left, 1804, May 14th." To do their twenty-one days the Brechin 
men were quartered at Montrose, and it was on one of these occasions that 
the amusing incident just narrated occurred. The Forfar men were also sent 
to Montrose. The writer remembers asking an old Forfar Volunteer who was 
boasting about his soldering days whether he had ever seen foreign service, and 
got for answer — " Oo aye ; I was ance at Ferryden ! " 

The Angus Fencibles, raised by, and under the command of, Major Fraser 
of Hospitalfield, and locally known as *■ Fraser's Men," were nearly all Angus 
men. The regiment comprised four or five companies, and was embodied in 
1794-5. The minutes of the Arbroath Town Council, of date 6th August, 
1794, bear that John Fraser, Esq., as Deputy-Lieutenant of the County of 
Forfar, waited on the Council and suggested the enrolment of the inhabitants 
for the defence of the town, &c. After hearing Mr Fraser, the Council 
unanimously recommended the inhabitants to enrol themselves. Of course the 
immediate cause of this proposed enrolment was the unsettled condition of 
the country following on the French Revolution ; but the appeal thus made 



The Muster- Roll of Angus, 



53 



ended in the embodiment of the regiment raised in the county under the name 
of the Angus Fencibles. 

This regiment was stationed at Dumfries when Robert Burns died, and 
a detachment of the Angus Fencibles took part in tlie funeral obsequies, Major 
Eraser putting the first shovelful of earth upon the coffin of our national poet. 

It is outwith the purpose of this paper to tell the story of the Volunteer 
force which came into existence amidst so much enthusiasm in 1859; suffice it 
to say that the same spirit which animated the Angus men of 1797 and 1803 
was that which moved the men of 1859 to rally round the throne of Queen 
Victoria. The same patriotic spirit still lives in the hearts of the men of 
Angus, and to-day they are as ready as of yore to defend witli their lives 
the honour of their king and country.

The Muster-Roll of Angus, 55 



OUT ON THE VELDT. 

By William Allan, M.P. 




UT on the veldt Angus Gordon was lying, 

Angus, the pride of the Highland Brigade ; 
Out on the veldt the young warrior was dying, 
Hit! when the tempest of bullets was flying 
From the long trenches the Boers had made ; 
Back we were driven from hills so defended, 
Leaving our comrades behind us untended — 
Out on the veldt. 

The dank dews of death over Angus were stealing 

As darkness succeeded the twilight's sad grey, 
Vainly he strove as his senses were reeling, 
To staunch the dark wound from whose ruddy revealing 

The fount of his life-blood was ebbing away ; 
While death^s cruel fire was his throbbing heart burning 
As he lay in wild agony writhing and turning — 
Out on the veldt. 

Ere passed the life-light from his blue eyes for ever, 

A vision of home and the Old Land appeared, 
He saw the green hills and the dark purple heather, 
He saw a wee cot by the loud-roaring river. 

He saw his fond mother, and once again heard 
Her sweet voice of love on his ear gently falling, 
"Angus, my Angus!" she seemed to be calling — 
Out on the veldt. 



56 



The Muster- Roll of Angus. 



He listened with joy and his bright eyes shone brighter, 

" Mother ! Tm coming ! " he faintly replied — 
The moon looked with pity upon the young fighter, 
Whose cheeks 'neath her cold kiss grew paler and whiter, 

As slowly death's fingers his life-bonds untied ; 
Then marched the brave soul, to the camp field of heaven, 
Of Angus whose life for his country was given — 
Out on the veldt.

ON GUARD! 

(Foun«l««f on Fact.) 

By Flora Annie Steel. 




IS name was Alexander Kidd, and even B Company of the Black 
Watch — fond as it was of nicknames — could find none better suited 
. to him than his own ; for " sandy" he- was, and not even a baby in 
arms could have been more child-faced, more child-hearted, than this " kid." So 
they called him either interchangeably ; and the boy laughed at both names, as 
he had laughed at life generally, ever since he had been born in a ploughman's 
cottage in the Howe o' Strathmore, not far from Glamis. His father, an honest, 
dour man, of the true type of ploughman who learns silence or short speech 
behind his team, would say briefly, with a look at the gude-wife, that Sandy 
was a Souttar, as if that explained everything. Perhaps it did ; since if tales be 
true the "Souters o' Forfar" were not always so douce as their neighbours. Not 
that Sandy was a bad boy. Far from it ; he only laughed more than his 
brothers and sisters, and cried more, too, when he was a little chap. 

Yet when the time came for him to leave the ploughman's cottage and 
follow the drum, as he had consistently and persistently said he would ever since 
he could speak, there were neither tears nor smiles. He just stood fair, and 
tall, and young, in his brand new uniform, and kissed his mother silently. Then he 
and his father shook hands. It was rather a long hand-shake, so that he had time 
to say, almost apologetically, " Weel, weel ; I must just awa," before No. 34 
B Company marched through the little garden patch, keeping time, no doubt, to 
the unseen drum and fife which had called him all his life. 

It was a time of peace, not war, and he was only one of a draft for India ; 
but India was an unknown land full of possibilities for Sandy Kidd, as it has 
been for so many sons of Angus. For it lives still, in some parts of the country- 
side, that glamour of the East which, in the old Company days, sent whole 
families, like the Binnys and the Arbuthnots, to seek the pagoda tree and return 



58 The Muster-Roll of Angus. 

after long years, to tell of having found or lost it; to tell many another 
marvellous tale which sank into the hearts of another generation. 

Perhaps he was not aware of the rule which until very lately was in force, 
namely, that every soldier going to India should pay the War Office for his 
coffin in advance; but if he had been, it is doubtful if the knowledge would 
have checked the young recruit's huge enjoyment of life. 

Even the journey by rail from Bombay to Meean Mir, which is surely 
the most deadly and distressing of experiences — even with the halt at Deolali 
thrown in — was to him an unending panorama of amusement 

" For Godsake give the Kid a bottle, an' stop its crowin'," said one of the 
older men who had been to India before, when, in the early dawn, they 
were roused out of their attempt to sleep 6y the boy's laugh. He laughed at 
everything; the crows, the sleeping yellow dogs, the bits of old rail which did 
duty as bells, the baboos ; even at himself for being there, an alien, a stranger, 
and yet one to whom the sons of the soil salaamid. 

Perhaps it was the perception of this fact which made him noticeably 
graver by the time his journey was over. Meean Mir, itself, however, might have 
been sufficient to explain the fact ; Meean Mir with its circling horizon of risen 
dust, its centring plain of fallen dust, bare, treeless, broken only by the crumb- 
ling bricks of forgotten graves. On the other hand, it may have been the tales 
which the older men had to tell ; tales which inevitably crop up afresh for 
every young soldier in India. Of the dark days of mutiny, the bright ones of 
untarnished fidelity to the flag. Jhansi, Cawnpore, Delhi, Meerut, what words 
were these to conjure withal ! Small wonder, indeed, if a soldier-lad's face should 
pale, his laugh die down, as the memorial spire, red as the Ridge itself, showed 
above the trees in which the taken city of Delhi hides itself from view. 

Then last of all, it is sobering for any recruit to find himself— without 
warning — one of an army of twenty-six thousand men gathered together to do 
honour to Her Majesty on the anniversary of her assuming the title of Empress 
of India I 

It is a big title. Those three days and nights of continuous travelling by 
rail — for the draft had hurried up so that the regiment might look its best on 
the great day — had brought so much home to the most thoughtless of these 
boys. 

The last day of the old year was just breaking when the draft marched 
from the station into camp, and on New Year's Day — Proclamation Day— the 
biggest parade that Meean Mir had seen for many a long year was to be

held. Half the Punjab was in to see the show, to join in the festivities of 
the Viceroy's visit to Lahore. Far as the eye could reach the white tents 
rose, and all day long guns were firing in salute to the feudatory chiefs as they 
paid their visits of vassalage to the Viceroy's tent. It was the first time that 
Alexander Kidd had heard the constant reverberation of distant guns as an accom- 
paniment to all the pomp and panoply of war in a big camp, and the noise of it 
straightway went to his head ; so that instead of making up, as his companions 
did, for those three nights of snatched sleep, he spent every hour he had of 
leisure in wandering about, careless of the blinding sun, careless of all things 
but his curiosity and the growing sense of elation, yet of responsibility, that 
was coming to his young laughter. Then it was Hogmanay, and when he came 
back at tattoo, after filling heart and brain with strange new things, all center- 
ing round the English flag which rose in front of the Viceroy's big durbar 
tent, there was "Auld Lang Syne" to be sung, and the toast that is drunk in 
silence to be given. Sandy, like the kid he was, drank it in milk, for somehow his 
young healthy taste had not as yet taken to strong drinks. And when more 
than one veteran, disposing of a " stiff un," shook their heads and warned him 
that milk was worse than whisky in India, he had his child-like, incredulous 
laugh for the wisdom. He had drunk nothing else but milk coming up in the 
train, for it had been a novelty to him to see the great earthen jars of it being 
hawked about at every station. And he had never felt better in his life ! 
Never! though he had scarcely slept for three nights. Yet he was not sleepy. 
How could a " recruity " feel sleepy when he found himself in the smartest com- 
pany of— naturally- — the smartest regiment in the camp? Found himself also 
put in the front rank by the sergeant because of his marching. Yet who could 
help marching well when those unseen drums and pipes had been playing 
" Hieland Laddie" in one's ears ever since one could recollect anything at all? 
How could a " recruity " feel sleepy when the men on either side of him told him 
briefly that if he spoilt the show they'd kill him ; when others in the tent were 
frankly jealous, and talked of d — d youngsters who didn't know what duty was ? 
Under such circumstances, was it not better to sit up and polish everything 
that could be polished, and then sneak off to a quiet spot and show yourself 
how you could march to the tune that was singing and buzzing in your head 
— the tune of Empire which had that r.efrain of " Hieland Laddie ? " 

Sandy Kidd's fair baby face was more child-like than ever in its flushed 
cheeks and limpidly bright eyes, when — before starting for the march past — the 
sergeant formed his men up. An approving nod sent the lad into a seventh 



6o The Muster-Roll of Angus. 

heaven of glory ; and after that he was conscious of nothing save himself and 
the flag that lay somewhere to his left. The older men looked for it, found it 
ahead, and so saved themselves for those few supreme minutes of actual passing; 
but Alexander Kidd started as he finished, and finished as he began. The sun 
— dimmed by the dust of the battalion in front of him — was in his eyes as with 
every nerve on the strain, he tried to be a credit to the regiment. 

The feu de joie took some of the strain from him ; but it returned again when 
in one long massed line, backed by battalions of dust rising from the feet of 
twenty-six thousand soldiers, the troops advanced for the salute. He could not 
help seeing the flag now ; it was straight in front of him rising out of glittering 
uniforms, seen against a queerer background than Sandy Kidd had ever dreamed 
of. Elephants in cuirasses and frontlets of gold, camels caparisoned in crimson and 
carrying wild figures hung with floating tassels ; dark faces beneath the sparkle 
of diamonds, sweet white faces that needed no jewels but their own eyes 

Right, left! right, left! right, left! 

Then that sudden stop that made your heart stop beating also; a clatter 
of arms, a surge of " God^ Save the Queen," and, above all, the wildest tumillt 
of conceivable sound as a hundred and twenty elephants raised their gilded 
trunks and trumpeted ! 

How he managed to get back to tents Sandy scarcely knew. His head 
ached horribly ; he could not touch his food ; but he was glad he had not 
yielded to the impulse to go and lie down, when, later on, the order came 
for a guard to be sent to the Viceroy's camp. There was to be a big 
reception in the evening, and extra men would be wanted. The thought of this 
fresh honour seemed to do his headache good, and as the sun, sinking in the 
west, ceased to stare at him, even his laughter returned. But it was noisier than 
usual, and more than one of his companions told him to shut up and not make 
a fool of himself. But how could you help playing it, just a little, when, if 
luck would have it, you might be on guard at the very flag itself ; right before 
the entrance to the durbar tent; right in view of everybody who came to do 
honour to the Representative of the Queen Empress; right in front of every 
Rajah and Nawab, big or little, reminding them that they were but vassals of 
Empire ! 

But luck was against it. The westering of the sun had done Sandy 
Kidd's head good, but — strangely he thought — darkness made it worse. The chill 
which comes with the dusk set him shivering ; at least so he thought, till one 
of the older men said to another — 



The Muster- Roll of An^s. 6i 



" Eh, mon ! what am I aye telHn' ye. The boys they're sendin' us the 
noo are no* fit for the regiment. See to him — weel eneuch tae look at, but 
nae staminy — nae staminy ava ! Ae blink o' the sun, an* fever an* agy — if it's 
no* waur ** — he added, significantly. 

Nevertheless they were kind to the fever-struck boy, and shook down a straw 
bed for him in the guard tent, and told him how the sun knocked the strongest down 
for a few hours, and that he might be himself again before morning. If not, it 
would be time then to go to hospital. They even made him strip to his shirt, and 
raised a blanket or two somehow, and then piled his clothes over him and more 
straw ; so leaving him in the dark to wrestle, till he sweated, with the fever 
fiend. But as they went out he heard that grudging voice remark that it was 
well India had had better stuff in Mutiny time, else the flag might have been 
in more danger than it was. 

True. The fever fiend whispered to Sandy Kidd that he was a failure, 
and all in the dark alone he reverted to that other childish habit of crying. It 
was so hard when one meant so differently. So very hard. And yet the tears 
seemed to cool his brain, to dim the visions of dark faces, women's faces, flags, 
elephants, and above all, of the red memorial spire above the red Ridge. So, 
with the faint strains of the National Anthem, played as the Viceroy entered 
the reception, in his ears, he fell asleep. 

Yet scarcely asleep ; the fever gripped him too hard for that ; but he 
lay unconscious even of dreams, till suddenly they came back to him, and he 
sat up in the dark trembling — 

Where was he } And where was the flag ? God in heaven ! — he had been 
on guard ! He was on guard still ! He was a traitor if he was not !— 

He was out of the straw in a second ; the next he was out in the night 
with his rifle — nothing else. 



Number 35, B Company, had been keeping himself warm in the chill before 
dawn by walking up and down in the front of the sentry-box beneath the flag. 
But now there was a stir at the entrance to the tent ; the sentries there pulled 
themselves together, as an aide-de-camp passed the word out that their Excellencies 
were leaving ; so No. 35 turned back to his box. 

"Halt! Who goes there?** rang out a challenge from within it. 

At that moment the curtains of the tent door were drawn back in readi- 
ness, and, by the light which streamed out, a figure with nothing but a shirt

on, yet with a rifle at the present, showed clearly, and No. 35 fell back with 
great promptitude. 

" Who goes there ? Halt ! or I fire ! '* came the challenge again. 

No. 35 stood rigid as a stone. He did not even dare to call for help. 
But the light had shown — as it could not fail to show — the strange sight to 
others at the door of the tent, and there was quick questioning and answer. 

" You must get him out somehow," said the aide-de-camp hastily. " Her 
Excellency will be here directly.*' 

The corporal hesitated. "We can shoot him, sir" — he began, thinking 
of the Kid's face as he had stood for inspection, and doubting if anything else 
would succeed. Yet he went forward a step or two with soothing words — 

" Halt ! Who goes there ? " came the challenge once more. 

"You must rush him from behind. I tell you Her Excellency- " began 

the aide frantically ; then paused, for it was too late. 

Down the crimson-carpeted anteroom came a man with a star on his 
breast, and a woman with a sweet kind face. Nothing very grand about them ; 
just an Englishman and an Englishwoman. But she was a soldier's daughter, 
and she understood. 

" Perhaps," she suggested quietly, " if you were to relieve guard ? " 

The corporal's face beamed assent, as he saluted. "You've hit it, ma'am," 
he said, enthusiastically, forgetful of dignities. 

So, with the aide as officer, a patrol formed up, and marched towards the 
sentry-box, where Sandy Kidd kept guard over the flag. 

^' Guard turn out T^ 

" Who goes there ? " 

" Officer's patrol:' 

" Give the countersign^ officer's patrols 

" Empire:' 

''Pass, officer's patrol 

There was no pause, no hesitation, and the guardian of the Empire stepped 
further into the light, his bare white limbs showing clear against the chill dark- 
ness. He had kept his post. His work was done. 

They handed him a greatcoat, saying it was his, and he put it on. So, 
obediently, he went to hospital ; and he stayed there for a week or two. He 
even smiled when a lady with a kind face, who the nurses told him was Her 
Excellency, came and brought him a bunch of violets. She reminded him of 
his mother. Perhaps that was why he seemed to forget all things, even the

Empire, after that, and to be a boy again fishing in the Curbett, laughing at 
everything. 

But the drums and fifes claimed him to the last, though his ears could 
not hear them playing "The Flowers of the Forest/' and though the salute 
which rang out over the grave of a soldier was the only fire he had ever been 
under: his only service, save that one "On Guard." 

For enteric kills more young soldiers than any war, and will do so, till 
we choose to fight the wrong that lies at our own doors.

FOUR ANGUS WARRIORS. 

By a. H. Millar, F.S.A. Scot. 



JAAVES GRAHAA\. First yAARQUis op AVontrose. 

•^AMES GRAHAM, " the great Marquis " of Montrose, was, according to 
Wishart, '* Chief of the Grahams, a most ancient and famous family in 
Scotland." He could trace his descent from William de Graham of Aber- 
corn and Dalkeith, who flourished early in the twelfth century, and was one of 
the witnesses to the Charter of 11 28, whereby David I. founded the Abbey of 
Holyrood. The first of the Grahams to settle in Forfarshire was William's 
great-grandson. David de Graham, who obtained the lands of Kinnaber and 
other property near Montrose, about 1200, from William the Lion. Among his 
famous descendants were Sir John the Graham, the companion-in-arms of Sir 
William Wallace; Sir Patrick Graham of Kincardine, who fell at the battle of 
Dunbar ; Sir Patrick, Earl of Strathearn ; Malise, Earl of Menteith ; Sir William 
of Kincardine, who obtained the lands of Auld Montrose in 1407, and married 
the sister of James I., thus becoming ancestor of the Grahams of Claverhouse ; 
Patrick, first Lord Graham (1445); William, first Earl of Montrose (1504), who 
fell, with his brother George, on Flodden Field ; and many others whose names 
are deeply wrought into the history of Scotland. 

James Graham was the only son of John, fourth Earl of Montrose, and of 
Margaret, daughter of William, first Earl of Gowrie. He was born in 161 2, 
succeeded his father in 1626, when in his fourteenth year, and matriculated at 
St Andrews in January 1627. In 1629 he married Magdalen, daughter of the 
first Earl of Southesk, and spent several years on the Continent, returning to 
this country in 1634, equipped alike as scholar and soldier, and accounted "one 
of the most accomplished gentlemen of the age." His reception at the Court of 
Charles I. was not so appreciative as he expected ; and probably disappointment 
had some share in driving him to take up the cause of the Covenanters. It has been 
asserted that Montrose was then in favour of giving representation in Parliament 



74 The Muster- Roll of Angus, 



to the people; hence his joining in the popular movement against Episcopacy. 
In November, 1637, he was received at Edinburgh as one of the Presbyterian 
leaders, and took an active part in imposing the Covenant in the following year. 
The abolition of Episcopacy by the General Assembly at Glasgow in 1638 had 
his full approval, and he became the acknowledged head of the party. Consequently 
when Scotland rose in arms against the King. Montrose was the principal 
military officer, and successfully led the Covenanters* army to Aberdeen, which 
he occupied, " imposing the Covenant, at the point of the sword, upon the in- 
habitants of the town and the surrounding country." After this victorious cam- 
paign, Montrose was invited to meet the King at Berwick, and it seems that the 
eloquence of Charles I. won him over, or at least made him disaffected towards 
the Covenanters. The result of this conference was the Cumbernauld Bond, dated 
August, 1640, by which Montrose and several other noblemen practically under- 
took to restore the King's prerogatives. 

The position of Montrose at this time has been thus reasonably described : 
— When he first went to the Court at Whitehall he found Scotland under the 
control of the Marquis of Hamilton and Archbishop Laud, and to resist them 
he joined the Covenanters ; but it was soon apparent to him that he had 
exchanged the tyranny of Hamilton plus the King, for the worse tyranny of 
Argyll minus the King, so he finally decided to abandon the Presbyterians and 
devote his sword to the Royalist cause. Thenceforth the struggle was between 
Montrose and Argyll, but the details of that long contest cannot here be 
repeated. Suffice it to say that on iith June, 1641, Montrose was arrested and 
imprisoned in Edinburgh Castle, and remained in captivity till the beginning of 
the following year. He retired to his own house, but continued to plot against 
both Hamilton and Argyll. Preparations were made to overthrown the Presby- 
terian party, and to invade Scotland in the King's name. On i6th May, 1644, 
Montrose was raised in the Peerage to the rank of Marquis, and was constituted 
Captain-General of the King's Forces in Scotland. At the head of the Royalist 
army he defeated the Covenanters at Tibbermuir, Alford, and Aberdeen, and 
achieved two notable victories at Inverlochy and Kilsyth. On 13th September, 
1646, he was surprised and defeated by General Leslie, and though he kept up 
a guerilla warfare in the north for some time, the news of the King's surrender 
compelled him to desist. He made his escape to the Continent, where he 
remained till after the execution of Charles L He then organised an army with 
which he invaded Scotland, landing at Orkney in March, 1650, and ravaging 
Caithness and Sutherland. After suffering a severe reverse near Tain, Montrose 



The Muster-Roll of Angus. 75 

was forced to flee, and while a fugitive he was betrayed by Macleod of Assynt, 
captured, taken to Edinburgh, and executed 2ist May, 1650, without even the 
form of a trial. His dismembered body, after having been exposed for some 
time in the principal Scottish towns, was buried at the foot of the gallows in 
Edinburgh ; but after the Restoration, Charles II. caused his remains to be 
disinterred, and buried honourably in St Giles Cathedral, Edinburgh. 

Montrose's latest biographers — the Rev. A. D. Murdoch and H. F. Morland 
Simpson, the translators of "The Deeds of Montrose" — write thus regarding 
him: — "Montrose is a historical paradox; the victorious Covenanting leader of 
the Bridge of Dee is the champion of the King unto death ; the friend of 
Spottiswoode is a ruling elder in the Glasgow Assembly which excommunicates 
him." Bishop Wishart, the friend, companion, biographer of Montrose, thus 
eulogises the hero in the Latin poem which he wrote on the first anniversary of 
his execution : — " The glorious hero, Montrose, at once the shame and glory of 
his ungrateful country, her pride and her reproach, Scotland's love and sorrow, 
ascends to his starry home. Heaven's shining palaces, the stately mansions of 
the angels beyond the spheres. There beneath his feet beholding the vanities of 
the perishing world, he has his joyous portion in the honour and love of God." 

The most familiar portrait of Montrose is that by Honthorst which is now 
at Brechin Castle, and which has been frequently reproduced. It is given in 
Mark Napier's " Memoirs of Montrose," in Taylor's " Pictorial History of Scot- 
land," in Chambers's " Eminent Scotsmen," and in Murdoch and Simpson's 
" Deeds of Montrose." The portrait of him by George Jamesone of Aberdeen 
(the " Scottish Vandyck ") which is now in the possession of the Earl of South- 
esk at Kinnaird Castle, is included in " The Muster-Roll of Angus " by the 
kind permission of Lord Southesk. It shows Montrose in his bridal dress, before 
his marriage to the daughter of the first Eari of Southesk, and is of interest 
alike to the historian and to the art-critic. 

JOHN GRAHA/A of Claverhouse, Viscount of Dundee. 

Few men of his rank have caused more controversy among historians than 
John Graham of Claverhouse. By one party he is hailed as the "lion-hearted 
warrior," and apostrophised as " Last of Scots, and last of freemen ; " by an- 
other party he is denounced as '*the despot's Champion," and is depicted as a 
barbarous monster, who warred alike upon unarmed men, defenceless women, 
and helpless children. Both pictures are distorted and exaggerated, and the 



76 The Muster- Roll of Angus. 



truth will be found between these extreme views, though Claverhouse still waits 
the advent of an impartial biographer. John Graham was descended from Sir 
William Graham, Lord of Kincardine, who was married to Lady Mary Stewart, 
daughter of Robert III. The eldest son of this marriage was Sir Robert 
Graham of Fintry, whose wife was Janet (not Elizabeth) daughter of Sir Richard 
Lovell of Ballumbie. Of the two sons of Sir Robert, the elder became 
the founder of the Grahams of Fintry, and the younger was John 
Graham of Balargus, ancestor of the Grahams of Claverhouse. Sir William 
Graham of Claverhouse married Lady Jean Carnegie, daughter of the first Earl 
of Northesk, and his eldest son was John, afterwards Viscount of Dundee. He 
was born about 1643, ^^^ studied at St Andrews University. Having com- 
pleted his course, he took service in France as a volunteer, and was after- 
wards a Cornet in the Dutch Guards. In 1674 he saved the life of the Prince 
of Orange at the battle of Seneff, and was then promised the command of 
the first Scots Regiment in the Netherlands. But he was twice deceived. 
Hugh Mackay of Scourie was promoted to a Lieutenant-Colonelcy in 1675, 
and again in 1677 Mackay was made Colonel in succession to Henry Graham. 
Insulted by this duplicity, John Graham resigned his commission and returned 
to Scotland in 1677; and it is worth noting that at Killiecrankie he opposed 
his old rival Mackay, and fought against the faithless Prince of Orange. 

Shortly after his return to Scotland, John Graham was appointed to the 
command of a troop of cavalry raised for the purpose of enforcing the Epis- 
copalian ritual on Scottish Presbyterians. His severity in accomplishing this 
task has been frequently condemned, especially by historians on the Whig side. 
On the other hand, it is maintained that as he held a commission it was his 
duty to execute the King's commands, and to shorten the Civil War by 
extreme measures. He received a severe check from the Covenanters at Drum- 
clog, on 1st June, 1679. but three weeks afterwards he avenged his defeat by 
the victory of Both well Brig. His services to the Royalists were acknowledged 
and rewarded. In 1682 he was made SheriflT of Wigtonshire, and in 1684 he 
was sworn of the Privy Council, made Colonel of a Royal regiment of horse, 
and received the lands and Castle of Dudhope and the Constabulary of Dun- 
dee, which had fallen to the Crown through the forfeiture of Charles Mait- 
land, Lord Haltoun. In 1688 he held the rank of Major General, and in that 
year assumed, with the King's consent, the office of Provost of Dundee. On 
1 2th November, 1688, he was created a Peer of Scotland, with the titles of 
Lord Graham of Claverhouse and Viscount of Dundee. When the crisis of the 



The Muster- Roll of Angus. 77 



Revolution came he adhered to the cause of James II., and counselled strong 
resistance. After the flight of the King, Dundee endeavoured to oppose the 
Revolution Settlement in Scotland ; but failing to rouse the Convention of 
Estates, he retired to Dudhope Castle, setting out from that place to enter upon 
the campaign which was terminated at Killiecrankie, in July, 1689, where the 
gallant leader fell in the moment of victory. He was ambitious, but he had 
ability to justify his ambition, and he succeeded in raising himself from the 
position of a humble Forfarshire laird to the rank of Viscount, with the reputa- 
tion of being the bravest and most chivalrous military leader of his time. The 
adverse judgment upon Dundee may be traced back to Wodrow's partisan 
history, written for the purpose of lauding the Covenanters at the expense of 
the King and the Episcopalians ; but some letters written by Dundee, which 
were lately discovered by Sir William Eraser, tend to clear him from many of 
these aspersions. The student of histor)' must choose between the detraction of 
Dundee's enemies, and the partiality of his friends, as in the lofty tone adopted 
by James Philip of Almerieclose, Dundee's comrade in arms at the last struggle, 
in his Latin poem of " The Grameid," the opening passage of which has been 
thus translated : — " We sing the noble Leader, calling brave men to arms for an 
exiled King, and himself rushing to meet cruel wounds. We sing the Graham,

WILLIAAV. Seventh Earl of Northesk. 

From the time when John de Balinhard acquired the lands of Carnegie in 1340, 
and assumed the designation of John de Carnegie, the family which he founded 
has given many prominent men to the service of their country, in the Court, 
the Senate, and the Camp. Walter de Carnegie of Kinnaird was one of the 
victorious leaders of the Royalist army at the battle of Brechin in 1452. Sir 
Robert Carnegie of Kinnaird was one of the early Senators of the College of 
Justice founded by James V. in 1532, having been appointed to that high office 
in 1537, and frequently serving as an ambassador to England and France. Two 
of his grandsons were raised to the peerage — David, the elder brother, being 
created Earl of Southesk, while the younger brother, John, was successively 
made Baron Lour and Earl of Ethie, the latter titles being exchanged by him 
in October, 1666, for those of Baron Rosehili of Rosehill and Earl of Northesk. 
To the latter branch of the Carnegie family belonged the distinguished naval

commander, William, seventh Earl of Northesk. He was the third son of 
George, sixth Earl of Northesk, and Anne, daughter of the Earl of Leven, and 
was born on loth April, 1758. at Leven Lodge, near Edinburgh. He chose his 
father's profession and entered the Royal Navy in 177 1 when in his thirteenth 
year, serving first with the Hon. Captain Barrington in the " Albion," and afterwards 
with Captain Macbride in the " Southampton," frigate. In 1777 he was appointed 
master of the "Apollo" by Lord Howe, and served on the American station. 
Thence he was transferred to the " Royal George," and set out with the fleet under 
Sir John Lockhart Ross in May, 1779, which joined Admiral Rodney at the 
Spanish Coast; and he was present at the famous action on 9th January, 1780, 
off Cape Finisterre, when the Spanish convoy, carrying provisions to the force 
besieging Gibraltar, was captured. He accompanied the prizes to Gibraltar, and 
assisted in the relief of the garrison. Rodney's fleet encountered the Spanish 
fleet off" Cape St Vincent on i6th January, and made havoc among them, 
carrying off" the admiral, Don Juan de Langara, as a prisoner. On February 
13th, Carnegie sailed under Rodney from Gibraltar for the West Indies, having 
a position in the " Sandwich," the admiral's flag-ship. With Rodney he was 
present at the battle off" Martinique on i8th April, 1780, and so heroic was his 
conduct that the admiral appointed him to the command of the ** Blast " fire-ship. 
On the 7th April, 1782, he was advanced to the rank of post-captain, and took 
part in the glorious victory by Rodney over De Grasse, off" Guadaloupe, on 12th 
April in that year. He returned to England in the ** Enterprise," frigate, and 
was paid off" at the peace of 1783. His eldest brother, David, died without issue 
on 19th F'ebruary, 1788, and as the second son had died in infancy, Captain 
Carnegie succeeded to the courtesy title of Lord Rosehill. On 9th December in 
that year he was married at Paris to Mary Ricketts, niece of the renowned 
Admiral John Jervis, Earl of St Vincent He entered upon active service in 
1790, taking command of the " Hermione," frigate. 

George, sixth Earl of Northesk, died at Ethie House on 22nd January, 1792, 
being then the third flag officer in the British Navy, and Lord Rosehill succeeded 
to the title and estates. In January. 1793, he sailed to the West Indies in the 
" Beaulieu," frigate, returning with a convoy in the " Andromeda." He was 
appointed to the command of the "Monmouth," 64 guns, in 1796, and joined the 
North Sea fleet under Admiral Duncan. The mutiny at the Nore had aff"ected 
some of the seamen in Admiral Duncan's fleet, and some of the ships had to be 
sent back to England lest the lawless spirit manifested should spread throughout 
the fleet. The " Monmouth " was one of the vessels thus returned ; and when the

vessel came to the Nore, a number of the mutineers on the " Sandwich," led by 
Richard Parker, boarded the " Monmouth/* and appealed to Lord Northesk to lay 
their claims before the Admiralty, as they considered him "the seaman's friend." 
He went on board the " Sandwich," and held a conference with the ringleaders, 
engaging to lay their grievances before the authorities. In Toone's ** Chronological 
Historian " the result is thus briefly narrated : — '* 1797, June 7 ; Lord Northesk, 
captain of the " Monmouth," arrived at the Admiralty from on board the rebel 
fleet at the Nore, with a petition to the Board, couched in very lofty language ; 
and a letter to His Majesty, in which the mutineers threatened to do something 
which would astonish the nation if their terms were not complied with." The 
application had no effect, for the ringleaders were tried by court-martial during 
the latter half of June, and the foremost of the mutineers, including Parker, were 
executed. As Lord Northesk did not rejoin the North Sea Fleet, he had no 
share in the glorious victory of Camperdown, which rendered famous the name 
of his neighbour and old shipmate. Admiral Duncan. 

Having resigned the command of the " Monmouth," Lord Northesk was 
not in active service till 1800, when he was placed in the ** Prince," 98 guns, 
and joined the Channel Fleet under his kinsman, the Earl of St Vincent. In 
this vessel he remained till the peace of April 1802, and he was unemployed 
till the declaration of war against France was made on i8th May. 1803. Lord 
Northesk was then appointed to the command of the " Britannia, ' 100 guns, 
and took his place in the Channel Fleet under Admiral Sir William Cornwallis, 
and this position he retained till May, 1804, when he was promoted to the 
rank of Rear- Admiral of the White. He made the " Britannia " his flag-ship, 
and was commissioned to maintain the blockade of Brest during the winter of 
that year, a task which he successfully accomplished. In October, 1805, Lord 
Northesk was ordered to join the fleet under Vice-Admiral Collingwood, off* 
Cadiz, and he was thus third in command at the battle of Trafalgar on 21st 
October. His share in that victory is thus described in " The Carnegies of 
Southesk ": — " The * Britannia,' which still bore his flag, broke through the enemy's 
line astern of their fourteenth ship, pouring in on each side a tremendous and 
destructive fire, and continued engaging the enemy's ships on both sides of her — 
frequently two or three of them at a time, with very little intermission, for five 
hours, when all resi.stance ceased." About the middle of the action, Admiral 
Lord Nelson was fatally wounded, and the completion of the conflict thus 
devolved upon Collingwood and Northesk. Their success was duly acknowledged. 
On 26th November the Court of Common Council of the City of London 



The Muster- Roll of Angus, 8i 

directed that "the thanks of the Court, and the freedom of the city, and a 
sword of 200 guineas value, be awarded to Vice-Admiral Lord Collingwood, and 
the freedom of the city and a sword of 100 guineas value be awarded to Rear- 
Admiral Lord Northesk." In January, 1806, Lord Northesk received the dignity 
of G.C.B., and both houses of Parliament passed votes of thanks to him, while 
a vase, valued at ;;^300, was presented from the Patriotic Fund at Lloyd's. On 
2nd August, 1806, the King gave him authority to bear an augmentation of 
arms introducing the name " Trafalgar " on the shield over the arms of the 
Carnegies of Northesk, the eagle bearing a naval crown, and the supporters 
holding banners with the words, '* Britannia Victrix." 

Lord Northesk was raised to the rank of Vice-Admiral in April, 1808, of 
Admiral in July, 18 14, and of Rear- Admiral of Great Britain in November, 
1 82 1. He was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the British Navy at Plymouth 
in May, 1822, and remained there till 1830. He died in Albemarle Street, 
London, on 28th May, 1831, in his seventy-third year, and was buried in St 
PauFs Cathedral, where a brass tablet is erected to his memory, beside the 
monument of his fellow-warrior. Lord Nelson. Two of Lord Northesk's sons 
entered the navy. George, Lord Rosehill, his eldest son, born 1791, was 
drowned at sea in the wreck of the "Blenheim," in February, 1807. Swynfen 
Thomas Carnegie, Lord Northesk's fourth son, born 181 3, rose to the rank of 
Rear Admiral, was .a Companion of the Bath, a Knight of San Fernando of 
Spain, and had the decoration of the Medjidie of Turkey. He died on 29th 
November, 1879. The present (tenth) Earl is the great-grandson of Admiral 
the Earl of Northesk. 

ADAAV DUNCAN, Viscount op Caaperdown. 

Admiral Duncan is one of the naval heroes whose career reflects glory not 
only on the County of Angus which gave him birth, but on the nation in whose 
service he spent his life. Of him it has been justly written by his latest 
biographer, the Earl of Camperdown (great-grandson of the Admiral) that " he 
had the honour to be one of the great Sea Commanders whom the perils of 
Great Britain in the eighteenth century called into existence. Boscawen, Hawke, 
Keppel, Howe, Rodney, Hood, St. Vincent, Nelson, Collingwood, were of the 
number." An earlier biographer thus tersely describes his character : — " It would 
perhaps, be difficult to find in modern history another man in whom, with so 
much meekness, modesty, and unaffected dignity of mind, were united so much 



82 The Muster-Roll of Angus. 

genuine spirit, so much of the skill and fire of professional genius, such vigorous 
and active wisdom, such alacrity and ability for great achievements, with such 
entire indifference to their success, except so far as they might contribute to the 
good of his country." The student of naval history might say that had not the 
battle of Trafalgar been consecrated by the death of Nelson, and made thus 
more impressive for the popular mind, Duncan's victory at Camperdown, against 
superior numbers, and with the possibility of mutiny among his own men, would 
stand forth as one of the greatest naval victories recorded in history. And it is 
interesting to note that two "Men of Angus" — Lord Duncan and Lord Northesk 
— took part in both of these *' glorious victories." 

Adam Duncan was the second son of Alexander Duncan, of Lundie, who 
was Provost of Dundee from 1744 to 1747, and had thus the difficult task of 
ruling the burgh during the Jacobite Rising. His mother was Helen Haldane, 
daughter of John Haldane of Gleneagles, and he was the third son, having been 
born in the Provost's Mansion in the Seagate, Dundee, on ist July, 173 1. When 
about fifteen years of age Adam Duncan entered the Royal Navy as a midship- 
man, under his kinsman Captain Robert Haldane, and served with him on the 
"Shoreham," frigate, for three years. He exchanged in 1749 to the "Centurion," 
SO guns, of which Captain (afterwards Admiral) Keppel was in command, and 
remained with that ship for six years. The interest taken by Keppel in the 
young midshipman was so great that to that eminent commander he owed much 
of his knowledge of seamanship. Under Keppel he served as midshipman, third, 
second, and first lieutenant, and flag and post captain, and even in his later years 
he was familiarly known as "KeppeUs Duncan." For two years the "Centurion" 
was cruising in the Mediterranean, endeavouring to check the expeditions of the 
Moorish pirates ; and after her return Keppell was appointed Commodore of the 
North American Station, and Duncg^n received his grade of Lieutenant on loth 
January, 1755, and set out with Keppel in the "Centurion" to convoy the troops 
under General Braddock to take part in the American War. On his return a 
year afterwards, Keppel removed to the "Torbay," 74 guns, and Duncan joined 
him on loth July, 1756, with the rank of Second Lieutenant. For nearly three 
years Duncan was with the Channel Fleet, employed in the blockade of Brest 
and other services; but at length in October, 1758, he was sent with the expedi- 
tion under Keppel to take the Island of Goree, near Cape Verd, and there 
Duncan received a wound in the leg from a musket ball — the only wound he ever 
received in the fifty actions in which he was engaged during his life. He obtained 
the rank of First Lieutenant after this battle, and from this date his promotion 



The Muster-Roll of Angus, 83 



was rapid. He was gazetted Commander on 21st September, 1759, and Post 
Captain on 25th February, 1761, and appointed to the "Valiant," 74 guns, 
serving under his old friend and patron, Admiral Keppel. When the Admiral 
set out on his expedition to Belleisle, he made the " Valiant " his flagship, and 
Duncan honourably distinguished himself in the conflict. From this place the 
Admiral and his protege set out for the West Indies and remained there till the 
conclusion of the war with Spain. 

Britain was at peace for several years, and Duncan was not actively 
employed till the renewal of hostilities in 1778, when he was appointed to the 
command of the " Monarch," and served under Admiral Sir Charles Hardy 
against the combined French and Spanish fleets. Towards the close of 1779 a 
powerful flotilla was formed, under the command of Admiral Keppel, and dis- 
patched to the relief of Gibraltar, in which service Captain Duncan again dis- 
tinguished himself. It was his fortune to return to Gibraltar in 1782 in Admiral 
Howe's fleet, and he was specially mentioned for his bravery in the conflict that 
took place at the Straits in October of that year. When the hostilities were 
terminated in 1783, Duncan exchanged to the "Edgar," 74 guns, one of the Ply- 
mouth guard-ships, and here he remained for the usual period of three years. 
On 14th September, 1783, he was promoted to the rank of Rear-Admiral of the 
Blue; on 24th September, 1786, he was gazetted Rear- Admiral of the White; 
on 3rd February, 1793, he became Vice-Admiral of the Blue; on 12th April, 
1794, he was raised to the grade of Vice-Admiral of the White; and on 1st 
June, 1795, he was made Admiral of the Blue. These rapid steps in pro- 
motion were not the result of active service, for Duncan had not obtained com- 
mand in any of the naval engagements between 1786 and 1795, though he had 
applied for posts on several occasions. At length his opportunity arrived. In 
April, 179s, he was appointed Commander-in-Chief in the North Sea, and chose 
the "Venerable," 74 guns, as his flag-ship. With that vessel his name was ever 
after to be honourably associated. After a cruise in the North Sea he returned 
with several French and Dutch prizes, and while his fleet lay in Yarmouth 
Roads there were symptoms of disaffection among his men, the result of the 
Mutiny at the Nore. By the exercise of discretion, suavity, and his powerful 
personal attractiveness. Admiral Duncan succeeded in quelling the symptoms of 
rebellion in his own fleet; but it was with a very insecure feeling that he set 
out again on 28th May, 1797, with orders to blockade the Dutch Fleet in the 
Texel, for his confidence in the loyalty of his men had been shaken, and his 
fleet had been reduced. In estimating the importance of the victory at Camper-

down, due allowance must be made for the difficulties which the Admiral had to 
encounter among his own followers. 

The orders given to Admiral Duncan in May were that he was to keep 
the Dutch fleet under Admiral De Winter from leaving the Texel and joining 
the French fleet in a projected descent upon Ireland. Though Duncan's fleet 
was so inferior in numbers at the first that he did not dare to risk an 
encounter, he managed to blockade the Texel for more than eighteen weeks. 
He had to return to Yarmouth to refit, and De Winter took the opportunity 
of Duncan's absence to venture out to sea. When Duncan returned in October 
to a point opposite the coast between Egmont and Camperdown, he found the 
Dutch fleet in the open. By a daring and risky movement Duncan formed his 
line of battle so as to place the principal Dutch ships between himself and the 
shore, while he sent a portion of his fleet to leeward, so as to prevent the enemy 
receiving support from the land. On nth October the battle of Camperdown 
was fought, with much bravery on both sides, and resulted in a great victory for 
Duncan, who took as his prisoners the three Dutch commanders — Admiral De 
Winter, Vice-Admiral Reyntjes, and Rear-Admiral Meuses. The plan which the 
French Directorate had conceived, of throwing a French and Dutch Army of 
Invasion into Ireland— which, with the Channel Fleet demoralised by mutiny, 
might have been easily accomplished — was thoroughly destroyed, and Britannia 
had once more justified her claim to rule the waves. The importance of the 
victory was enthusiastically acknowledged. On 17th October, 1797, the Admiral 
was created Viscount Duncan of Camperdown and Baron Duncan of Lundie. 
The freedom of the city of London was conferred upon him, together with a 
sword valued at 200 guineas ; he received the thanks of both Houses of Parlia- 
ment, and the Crown bestowed upon him a pension of ;{^2000 per annum, to 
be continued to himself and the two next holders of the title ; and Dundee, 
Glasgow, and Dublin placed his name on their Rolls of eminent burgesses, and 
gave him suitable memorial presentations. A special thanksgiving service was held 
in St Paul's Cathedral, London, on 19th December, at which the King and the 
Royal Family were present, Admiral Duncan carrying in the procession the 
flag of the Dutch Admiral which he had taken at Camperdown. The Admiral's 
portrait was painted for the Dundee Town Council, and a service of plate was 
presented to him. The old name of the estate of Lundie was changed to 
Camperdown, and in Glasgow and Edinburgh there were convivial clubs founded 
having the designation of " Camperdown." On 14th February, 1799, Lord 
Duncan was raised to the rank of Admiral of the White, and he retained

his position as Commander-in-Chief in the North Sea until the spring of 1800, 
when he retired into private life. In July, 1804, he went to London to offer 
his services to the Admiralty. He was then in indifferent health, and had 
suffered from recent family bereavement, which had broken down his spirit. 
On his way home from London he was taken ill suddenly, and died at Corn- 
hill, near Coldstream, on 4th August, 1804, being then in his seventy-third year. 
His body was brought to the churchyard of Lundie, and interred there, where 
a simple slab briefly records the dates of the birth and death of a great naval 
hero. A splendid monument to his memory, with a life-size marble figure of 
the Admiral, stands in St Paul's Cathedral, a testimonial from a grateful 
nation ; but the modest inscription on the humble panel in Lundie kirkyard, 
which was partly devised by himself, is more typical of that earnest, sincere, 
whole-hearted Scottish patriot, Admiral Viscount Duncan of Camperdown.

"A CUP OF COLD WATER." 

By the Hon. Mrs Greenhill-Gardyne. 



JjSir LITTLE lad of tender years, 
Of worn and feeble frame 




For him the lamp of life burns low, 

No oil to feed the flame. 
He lies within the shadow-land, 

His course is well-nigh o'er ; 
No more for him shall daisies bloom, 

Nor laverocks sing and soar. 

But high the spirit thrills with life! 

His mind is active still ; 
His busy fancy wakes the power 

Of kindling heart and will ; 
His being is athirst to hear 

Of daring deeds afar ; 
His thoughts by day, his dreams by night, 

Are centred in the war. 

He sees the tents in scattered lines 

Spread o'er the dusty veldt ; 
He sees the burning light of heaven. 

In purple distance melt ; 
He hears the martial bugle-call, 

The rolling of the drum. 
The tramp and swing of marching bands 

As to and fro they come. 

Ah, more than this his vision shows! 

From rocky mountains steep 
Flashes the deadly rifle-fire. 

The screaming shrapnel sweep ; 
Unshaken in the swift advance, 

Steady the bold attack — 
Only — a line of fallen men 

Has marked that onward track. 



88 The Muster-Roll of Angus. 

"Think you, might I rise up once more, 

Once more be well and strong, 
That to the war I might go forth, 

As I so greatly long ? " 
" My child," his kindly friend replied, 

'* How could your wish come true ? 
How could you be a soldier brave, 

A little lad like you?" 

" I could not be a soldier brave, 

A soldier of the Queen ; 
I could not join the desp'rate charge — 

My strength is small and mean. 
Yet, maybe, I could give some help ; 

How gladly, if I might, 
A drink of water I would bring 

To those who fall in fight ! " 

Spirit of War, stern monitor! 

Though awful is thy face, 
Yet sometimes in thine aspect grave 

A milder glance we trace. 
When at thy touch sweet pity fills 

The heart of Innocence, 
We know true insight is vouchsafed 

Unto that purer sense. 

For ever amid storm and strife 

The lines of progress grow ; 
The truest peace-makers are they 

Who fearless meet the foe. 
The ardour of self-sacrifice 

Shall lighten every toil, 
And fairest flowers of love shall spring 

From that blood-watered soil.

^^jIj^^HEY were a small company of the Queens servants resting under the 
ylf eaves of **The High Roof of the World," with the great shoulders of 
-^ the Hindoo Koosh towering above them into the night. The sound 
of a stream rushing down the gorge fell upon the wearied soldiers* ears with a 
cadence softened by the distance. An occasional moan indifferently suppressed, 
a cry of pain, as one forgetful of his wound tried to turn on the hard bed of 
earth, let one understand that there had been a sharp engagement in the daylight ; 
and now with the battle-fever slowly subsiding, suffering men put in the hours 
of darkness with what fortitude they might. 

Colonel Dempster, who was in command, lay on the earth conversing in a 
subdued whisper with his faithful ally, Sergeant Chisholm. Both were men of 
Angus, and both came from the same parish — the one from the battered old 
Castle whose grey towers rose up among the beeches ; the other from the croft 
with its thatched cottage on the brae head. This night, after the carnage in 
which blood flowed like water, and many a brave man saw the sun for the 
last time, their hearts were tender ; they longed for the pleasant fields of their 
native land, for the familiar haunts, and for the faces and voices of old friends. 

. The two had been boys together, had fought, not side by side, but against 
each other with a stubborn dourness which had left with each a life-long 
respect for what the other could do ; and when the young officer enrolled the 
enemy of his school days he was proud of his company. There was much 
coming and going between the castle and the croft; and with each letter from 
abroad, the laird and his lady had a message for Widow Chisholm, while she, 
too, had news to impart ; and the difference in education and station was 
bridged over by the love of the parents for their soldier sons. It was with a 
common joy they heard of promotion to the two ; and when the one attained 
his colonelcy and the other his sergeantship, it looked as if the world held little 
more for the fond parents except to have their sons home again. 



90 The Muster- Roll of Angus, 



" I had a letter from home to-day, Davie, and the old folk have a message 
for you. Your mother has not been as well as usual, but she is stepping about 
again. Influenza, they say — with perhaps a touch of old age; eh, Davie? My 
father has been keeping the house a deal of late, too," the officer said 
musing. He knew the years were whitening the hair and giving a stoop to 
the shoulders of his loved ones at home. 

" When this business is ower, are we likely to be sent hame — for I wad 
sair like to set een on my auld mither again } " the sergeant asked with some- 
thing of the fretfulness of an unweaned child. 

" It is hard to say ; for the ways of the War Office are past finding out. 
But I should like to see the old folk too. I would give something, Davie, 
for a scone fresh off your mother's griddle and a tumbler of milk. Would they 
taste as sweet as in the old days ? " 

"An' I wad fain spend a summer gumpin' for trout i' the Lunan as I did 
when I was a loon. I can smell the Queen-o'-the- Meadow yet.'* 

" How these poor fellows are groaning ! We have escaped without a 
scratch ; how cold it has grown ! " 

The day had been fiercely hot, the night was as fiercely chill ; and that 
intolerable thirst which seizes the wounded tormented the little company griev- 
ously. Some one with a strong Scotch accent groaned hiilf-mournfuUy, half- 
mirthfully — 

" Hech, sirs, but 1 am dry. I wad fain gie hauf-a-hunder o' thae hills for 
a'e drink o' caller water." 

A merry little Ghurka, with a comical attempt at the idiom and accent, 
retorted — 

" Hech, Sandy, but I am dry too " — and somebody laughed. It was well 
they had heart enough to laugh at their calamities. 

The cry for water became more general ; and a wounded soldier, springing 
to his feet in a delirium of fever, staggered stream-ward a few paces, when he 
sank to the earth groaning : — 

" Get me water, or I shall go mad, mad, mad ! " 

The stream raved through the gorge far below ; the banks on both sides 
were held by the enemy in force, and to attempt to get water from such a 
source was to court death. Yet the cry was become very bitter, and it wrung 
Colonel Dempster's heart. 

*' Davie," he said earnestly, " have you ever felt as Hagar felt when in 



The Muster- Roll of Angus. 91 



the wilderness she turned aside that she might not see her child die ? Wliat 
would I not give to get this moaning stopped." 

** Men/' he cried, moved by a sudden impulse and unable to hear their 
complaining longer, " I shall fetch you water ; " and unbuckling his sword with 
nervous haste he seized a pitcher ; and was only prevented from setting out 
by the intervention of Sergeant Chisholm. 

" Colonel Dempster, ye daurna gae, you canna gae ; your safety is the 
safety o' the Company, and their lives hing on your life ; let me gang ; " and 
seizing the pitcher from the Colonel's grasp, he shouldered his gun and was 
ready to start. 

" Leave your gun, Davie ; everything you can do without, leave. It must 
be by speed, not by fighting that you can succeed," the Colonel said in a 
grave, low voice. 

" Gin I dinna come back. Colonel, ye can tell my mither — oh — onything ; 
that I hae married an Afridi, an' hae settled doon for gude ; but ye'll gie 
her a look in whan ye get hame, an' ye can say — I — " 

Davie Chisholm hesitated. He loved his mother — but he never said so 
much to himself, much less to another. ' Ye can say I was speirin' for her ; " 
and he dashed off into the darkness as lithe and fierce as a tiger. Woe to the 
Afridi who barred his passage! 

In the suspense heightened by the darkness and inactivity, the moments 
dragged past with leaden feet ; and only the rush of the stream or the thunder 
of a mass of rock hurtling down the mountain side fell upon the ear. The 
wounded men had ceased to moan ; and a cry of dismay arose from the hill- 
side when down below a sudden clamour and the firing of many muskets 
broke out. 

" Can he get through ? " a hundred hearts were asking ; and as the 
minutes slowly piled up into an hour with no sign of the returning soldier, 
their hopes sickened and died, and the wounded gave way to their moaning 
again. Colonel Dempster was bitterly regretting this madcap venture, when a 
sentinel called sharp and distinct — 

" Who goes there } " 

" Water from the well at Bethlehem's gate," was the quick response ; and 
the soldiers, raising cheer after cheer, crowded about the Sergeant ; while those 
harder hit sat up, waved their hands and made such demonstration as they could. 

He was just telling of his adventures when a cry arose for more water ; 
in his haste he had spilled half the pitcherful — and it more precious than gold ! 



9^ The MusUr-Roll of Angus. 



**ril gang again, lads!" he said readily; "I ken the lie o' the land, an* it'll 
be an easy job neist time. Besides they saw the first was a false alarm ; an' 
they'll no stir so speedily anither time." 

A second, a third time he threaded his way through a country sown 
thick with the enemy, through a land shadowing with wings, and those the 
wings of death ; yet in perfect safety, without scratch or bruise, he made his 
way through a hail of bullets ; and many a man as he raised the water to his 
burning lips whispered — 

" God bless Sergeant Chisholm ! " 

" I shall recommend you for the V.C. ; yours is a heroic deed, Chisholm," 
his officer said proudly. 



In succeeding months events followed each other in rapid succession. The 
war on the ridge of the world was brought to an end ; and prior to their 
leaving for the home country, the officers gave a grand Tamasha to certain 
Kashmir notables. But the feast, which was under Sergeant Chisholm's super- 
intendence, was not a success ; the salt was not salt, and certain puddings 
were thickly dusted over with a condiment which provoked profane language 
on the part of whoever tasted it. The sergeant swore it was cinnamon ; the 
feasters swore it would have passed for powdered bath brick, had it not been 
for its monstrous effect. The War Office, whose ways are past finding out, took 
no notice of Colonel Dempster's recommendation ; and it was the current belief 
that Sergeant Chisholm had forfeited his V.C. through failing to be as good a 
caterer as he had proved a soldier. 

It was a pleasant thing to get home again, to stroll by the Lunan, and 
see the kindly faces of old friends ; but when dark clouds gathered over South 
Africa and war was declared, not a man but longed to get into action ! Off 
to the front again with light hearts Colonel Dempster and his men went, think- 
ing little of death and much of hard work and stiff fighting, with the prospect of 
deserving a V.C, whether they got it or no. 

It was the night before Magersfontein, and the Colonel took the precaution 
of confiding one or two matters to the care of Sergeant Chisholm. 

" I have written home, Davie ; and if anything happens to me you shall see 
to the letter and to my parents getting all information about me they wish. I 
have made everything right for your mother, in the case of anything happening 
to you." 



The Muster-Roll of Angus. 93 

The Sergeant said nothing. If a Scotchman speaks when he is moved, 
it is an infalh'ble sign he is tipsy ; and in a gayer tone the Colonel continued, 

** You may get a V.C. this time ; promotion of some sort, certainly." 

" Ay, gin ye dinna set me to the cookin' again, Colonel," the Sergeant said 
mischievously ; ** in which case I may be reduced." 

Colonel Dempster laughed as he recalled the sad havoc the Sergeant's 
catering had wrought among the officers and the notables of Kashmir. 

** What did you use for salt on that never-to-be-forgotten occasion, Davie } " 

** There was naething wrang wi' the saut ; // was richt eneuch, and was 
the very best saut to be gotten," David answered doggedly. 

" Yet no matter how much one took, it never got any salter I " 

"That was hardly my wyte. I got it oot o' a bottle in your ain cupboard, 
labelled and never opened, so that there could be nae mistak\ It was ca'ed 
Eno*s Fruit Salt ; an' gin that werena guid eneuch, tell me whar I was likely 
to get better?" 

Colonel Dempster laughed, and when one would have thought he had done 
laughing he set off afresh, much to the Sergeant's annoyance. 

" And yon unearthly powder you sprinkled on the puddings, Davie ; what 
was it? The like has not been tasted since.'' 

" Yon, sir, was intended for grund ceennamon." 

" Yes ; and what was it ? " 

** I understood it to be grund ceennamon ; I gled it for that, an' meant it 
to be ta'en for that." 

" No doubt ; but what was it, Davie ? " 

" Ye'll be a happier man, Colonel Dempster, gin ye never ken what yon 
grund ceennamon was ; I'll alloo I made a slicht mistak' there, although the 
saut was a' richt,'* the Sergeant answered, blushing as he made this tantalising 
acknowledgment ; and his officer had a greater desire to unearth the mystery 
than ever. 

" Well, Davie, since you will not tell, and as I may not be here to-morrow 
to be told, you will see to the letter. May we get through the day's work 
with nothing worse than a whole skin ; and promotion of some sort for the pair 
of us. Good night ! " the Colonel said, as one says it who may be taking a 
last farewell. 

" Gude nicht, sir ; an' whatever befa' may we do oor pairt." 

They made ready for an early start ; and Colonel Dempster thinking of the 
unrewarded exploit of his Sergeant felt that had he lived in the days of the 



94 The Muster-Roll of Angus. 

Psalmist he would have ranked among David's three mighty men. But valour 
had become so common in the British army of late that it might easily be 
overlooked. 

Next day the battle of Magersfontein was fought, and men fell in swathes 
like grain before the reaper. Far into the hours of darkness the stretcher-bearers 
carried in the wounded and the dying; and officers and men waited with aching 
hearts for missing comrades and friends. Colonel Dempster's battalion had 
suffered severely, and only a battered handful answered the roll-call. Among 
the missing was Sergeant Chisholm. 

The stretcher-bearers crowded up with their pitiful burdens, when the 
officer's eye caught the stricken face of his friend. In a moment he was by his 
side, and stooping over the helpless form he asked — 

"Are you badly hit, Davie?" 

The soldier smiled faintly, and whispered — 

" Promoted at last, Colonel ! " 

" Can I do anything for you ? " 

"Ye'll no forget my auld mither? it'll be sair on her." 

" She shall be provided for, Davie." 

"God bless ye!" 

Sergeant Chisholm closed his eyes, and the ashen hue of death crept over 
his lips, while Colonel Dempster knelt by his side holding the nerveless hand. 
For a moment the dying man opened his eyes and smiled. 

"Yon grund ceennamon. Colonel " 

" Don't think about that, Davie," the officer exclaimed as he paused from 
weariness. 

"Was Keating's Insect Poother." 

" I do not care though it had been prussic acid, if you had escaped this 
day," the Colonel said vehemently. Then with bared head and a faltering 
tongue the strong man committed his friend, whose life-span was limited to 
moments, to the gracious care of Him who has vanquished death. 

Sergeant Chisholm, bravest of the brave, was, through interest with certain 
Higher Powers, promoted to a grave on the Veldt ; and in far-off Scotland two 
women sat by a peat fire weeping. The old Laird and his " Leddy " had gone to 
comfort Widow Chisholm with their son's letter, written on that fatal day. Amid 
her sobs the lady read, " A better man, a truer friend, a more fearless soldier in 
the hour of danger there was not."

The old Laird stood at the cottage window, erect, stern, with hands clasped 
behind his back, looking across the woods and the high grounds where 
the sky line touched. Far beyond the horizon his imagination travelled, till 
he saw the blood-red fields of Africa; and he prayed, "Oh that the reign of 
righteousness and love might come, that wars should cease, and peace dwell 
for evermore.*'

SOME CASTLES AND MANSIONS 

OF ANGUS. 

By George Hay, F.S.A. Scot. 



JML± M 



^r^HE County of Angus is so rich in Castles and Mansions that merely to 
mention them would be to produce a catalogue of considerable length, 
any of the old castles are in ruins, having been wrecked in the tribal 
or family feuds which were common in Scotland in times less happy than our 
own. In some instances, however, the ruin was not the work of war, but simply 
of time, the inconvenient though strong old tower being abandoned when, 
although every man's house continues to be his castle, it is no longer necessary 
that he should so build it as to enable it to resist a seige or an armed assault. 
Some of the older castles of the county, however, such as Glamis, that fine 
specimen of Scottish baronial architecture, are still inhabited houses, and are 
amongst the best houses in the kingdom ; while, as at Kinnaird, the site of the 
old castle is occupied by one that is comparatively modern. About them all, 
and situated as they generally are on sites of natural beauty, there cling the 
charm of story and romance, often of ballad poetry, and the recollection of 
deeds which find a place in national history. 

Not a few of the old castles cluster about or are in the district of the 
head town of the shire. Forfar itself, when the Scottish monarchy was some- 
what migratory, was in the time of the Alexanders a royal residence ; but of 
the castle in which the kings resided, and from which William the Lion made 
visits to Arbroath to watch from time to time the erection of his Abbey, nothing 
remains. Glamis, a few miles west from Forfar, was also a royal residence at 
an early date, and there is a constant tradition that one of the kings, Malcolm 
II., was murdered there in 1033. That was fully five hundred years before the 
erection of the present Castle of Glamis, the date of which is generally given 
as 1578. Some of the Castle is probably older. A bit of it must be older, if 
we are to accept as authentic the tradition that the worthy who is known in 



98 714^ Muster- Roll of Angus. 

history as the "Tiger" Earl of Crawford, or "Earl Beardie," is in a shut-up 
room there, along with his boon companions, playing cards, rattling his dice 
boxes, and drinking his wine, and will continue to drink and gamble till the 
Day of Judgment The weird tradition is that this interesting crew had con- 
signed their souls to the Prince of Darkness, and were taken at their word. 
The well-known story further goes that the whereabout of the hidden chamber 
is known only to the Earl of Strathmore, his heir, and the factor on the estates, and 
that this knowledge is transmitted by them to their successors. The Earl's family 
came into possession of Glamis in the fourteenth century by the marriage 
of Sir John Lyon with the second daughter of Robert II., the Princess bringing 
the thanedom of Glamis to her husband as her dowry. The family history of 
the Lyons is throughout very interesting. The Hon. Malcolm Bowes-Lyon, 
one of the Earl's sons, has gone to the front in the South African War, and 
in thus serving his country has shown himself worthy of the best of his 
ancestors. 

At Kirriemuir we get to the centre, as it were, of what was once a very 
extensive barony, over which the ancient Earls of Angus, the immediate succes- 
sors of the Celtic chiefs of the land, held sway. North from Kirriemuir, is 
Cortachy, the seat of the Earl of Airlie. The Ogilvys, who are descended from 
the second of the old Earls of Angus, obtained a grant of lands bearing their 
name from William the Lion. They have been at Cortachy since about the 
middle of the fourteenth century, and at Airlie, with its " Bonnie Hoose," from a 
century later. Cortachy is one of the instances of a house of palatial dimen- 
sions and character occupying the site of an ancient feudal keep. Its situation, 
with the river South Esk flowing through its extensive grounds, is very beautiful, 
as are all its surroundings. In fighting times the Ogilvys were a strong, 
masterful race, taking a prominent place in the history of Scotland, and active, 
as they still are, in the business of the shire. It would have been strange if 
to a family of such antiquity as that of Lord Airlie there did not attach a 
" ghost." The tradition is that when a member of the family is about to die 
strange music is heard within the castle — sometimes the wail of the bagpipe, 
sometimes the shrill sound of the fife and the beating of the drum, accompanied 
with a sound as of the tramp of soldiers. Having regard to the family 
history, it might well be the tramp of soldiers. Like many of his ancestors, the 
late Earl of Airlie served his country in war. Scorning a life of ease, with 
the soft allurements of beautiful Cortachy, he stuck to his profession as a 
soldier, serving under Field-Marshal Lord Roberts in the Boer War, as did also

his brother, the Hon. Lyulph Ogilvy, and two of his nephews. Lord Airlie 
commanded the 1 2th Lancers. In an action near Bloemfontein he was wounded 
in the arm, and soon afterwards in fighting with the enemy to the east of 
Pretoria, leading his regiment in a charge, he fell mortally wounded. 

About midway between Cortachy and Kirriemuir is Inverquharity, an old 
home of the Ogilvys. It dates from the fifteenth century, and is still a strong 
tower, not greatly damaged by time, but an example of the Angus Castles which 
have been abandoned by their owners owing to their unfitness as dwelling-houses 
to the requirements of modern life. At its entrance there is still a massive 
yett, or gate, of grated iron, such as are to be found at the entrance to many 
baronial houses in Scotland. These yetts were of a defensive character, and 
could only be erected by royal licence. The licence for the Inverquharity yett 
was granted by one of the Jameses to Sir Alexander Ogilvy. It was granted 
"to fortifie his hoose and strenth it." The licence still exists, and is in the 
possession of Sir Alexander's descendant. Sir Reginald Howard Alexander Ogilvy, 
Bart, of Inverquharity. It was Sir Alexander Ogilvy who, on 23rd January, 1445, 
fought in the sanguinary battle of Arbroath with the Lindsays, headed by the 
Master of Crawford — the *' Tiger" Earl — for the office of Justiciar of the 
Abbey. In all the wars of Great Britain, and certainly not least so in the war 
in South Africa, it has been amply demonstrated that the refinements of 
modern life do not in our country diminish fighting power or patriotic ardour 
when the necessities of the country call for their exercise. A descendant of 
the old barons of Inverquharity, Commander Frederick Charles Ashley Ogilvy, 
of H.M.S, ** Terrible," son of Sir Reginald Ogilvy, has served with the Naval 
Brigade in Natal. He was in the battle of Colenso, and was honourably 
mentioned in the dispatches of General Sir Redvers Buller. Colenso was his 
first battle, and his gallantry in it was recognised by his promotion to the rank 
of Commander. About a century ago, the then representative of the family 
sold Inverquharity. He had succeeded to Baldovan, near Dundee, which is now 
the principal residence of the family. The house is beautiful for its situation 
and the simplicity of its architecture. Baldovan, it may be added, is to many 
an interesting place-name in connection with the orphanage and asylum which 
were established there by Lady Jane Ogilvy. 

Finavon, or Finhaven, near Forfar, is a great name among the castles of 
Angus. It was one of the chief homes of the Lindsays, once very powerful in 
the shire. They also possessed Edzell — which, even in its ruins, shows traces 
of former magnificence — Invermark, and other strong places. The old castle of

Finavon seems to have been more extensive than Edzell. It stood on the 
Highland border, guarding the passes through the valleys of the Isla, Prosen, and 
Esk. Only the ruined tower now remains. Finavon was at one time a royal 
riesidcnce. It was the chief home of the " Tiger " Earl, and of his predecessors 
and successors in the Earldom of Crawford. Within its walls Margaret, daughter 
of Cardinal Beaton and Marion Ogilvy, was married to David Lindsay, Master, 
afterwards Earl, of Crawford, and "in such state," as Knox says in his "History 
of the Reformation," "as if she had been a prince's lawful daughter." There 
is a "ghost" tradition about Finavon, that of Jock Barefoot, whom the "Tiger" 
Earl hanged : — 

** Earl Beardie ne'er will dee, 

Nor puir Jock Bairfoot be set free, 
As lang's there grows a chestnut tree." 

Finavon passed from the " lichtsome Lindsays" in the seventeenth century. It 
became a possession of the Carnegies. Mr David Greenhill-Gardyne succeeded his 
cousin, Mr Carnegie Gardyne, in the estate of Finavon, and died in 1867. It was 
he who built the present mansion. The old place of the Lindsays is connected 
with the South African War through the service in it of Captain Greenhill-Gardyne 
of the Gordons, and Walter Greenhill-Gardyne, who enlisted as a trooper in the 
Imperial Yeomanry. 

Panmure, in the Arbroath district of the shire, has for considerably more than 
six centuries been a possession of the family of Maule, represented by Arthur 
George Maule Ramsay, born in 1878, and who as fourteenth Earl of Dalhousie 
succeeded to the titles and estates on the death of his father in 1887. The Maules, 
a family of French extraction, came into possession of Panmure in 1224 by the 
marriage of Sir Peter Maule with Christian, daughter and heiress of William de 
Valoniis, whose father had received a gift of Panmure, with other lands in Angus, 
from William the Lion. The old Castle of Panmure, the foundations of which can be 
distinctly traced, occupied a strong position a short distance from the comparatively 
modern Panmure House. It was occasionally the scene of fierce conflict. Sir 
Robert Maule, the fifteenth baron, having oppo.<^ed the project of marriage be- 
tween the infant Mary Queen of Scots with Edward VI. of England, Panmure 
Castle was in 1543 besieged by an English force under the Protector, the Duke 
of Somerset. Sir Robert Maule was severely' wounded, and the castle surren- 
dered. Sir Patrick Maule, the eighteenth baron, was in 1646 raised to the 
peerage as Lord Maule of Brechin and Navar and Earl of Panmure. The

erection of Panmure House was begun twenty years afterwards, in the time of 
George, the second Earl. The builders were John Milne, master mason to the 
king, and, on his death, Alexander Nisbet, who succeeded him in that office. 
John Ouchterlony, in his " Account of the Shire of Forfar," says of Panmure 
House, then but recently erected, that " it is thought by many, except 
Holyruid House, the best house in the kingdome of Scotland." The house 
has been improved and beautified in modern times. It is associated with the 
rebellion of 17 15, and there is a tradition that the "Old Gate" has never been 
opened since Earl James, whose estates were forfeited in consequence of the part 
he took in the rebellion, quitted Panmure to die an exile in France in 1723. From 
Panmure the Maules have extended over a wide part of Angus. In 1679 they were in 
possession of Kelly Castle, the old home of the Ouchterlonys. Sir Thomas Maule, 
brother of Sir William Maule of Panmure, lost his life in 1303 in bravely 
defending the historical castle of Brechin, of which he was governor, against 
Edward I. ; but it was not till 1634 that the Maules obtained by purchase the 
lordship of Brechin and Navar. Brechin Castle has long been their chief 
residence in Forfarshire. Shortly before the Stuart rebellion, Earl James bought 
the lands of EdzcU, Glenesk, and Lethnot, and thus became lord of the old 
Lindsay castles of Edzell and Invermark. It is said that his object in making this 
purchase was to strengthen the Jacobite interest in Angus, his support of which 
proved so disastrous to himself. The estates of the forfeited Earl were bought 
back by his nephew, who was raised to the Irish peerage by the title of Earl 
Panmure. This Earl died unmarried. His sister, Jean Maule, had married George, 
Lord Ramsay. It was through this marriage that the Angus estates of the 
Maules passed to the Ramsays of Dalhousie. Lord Dalhousie, who represents 
both the Maules and Ramsays, obtained a second-lieutenancy in the Forfar and 
Kincardine Militia. He was soon afterwards gazetted to the Scots Guards, 
and as a lieutenant in that corps has proceeded to the war in South Africa. 
Lieutenant Edward Maule Young of Lincluden, son of the late Major Thomas 
Young, and grandnephew of Fox, eleventh Earl, and of George, twelfth Earl of 
Dalhousie, was killed at Karee in the South African War on 29th March, 1900. 
In the Arbroath district we have also Ethie Castle, represented in the 
South African war by the Hon. Ian Carnegie, of H.M.S. " Powerful," who was in 
the Naval Brigade at Ladysmith, and endured the dangers and privations of the 
four months' siege. Mr Carnegie is brother of the Earl of Northesk. Ethie Castle 
has associations with one of the most important figures in Scottish history about 
the middle of the sixteenth century, Cardinal Beaton. It is said to have been 



104

built by him while he held the abbacy of Arbroath. A room in the castle, now 
used as a store-room, is called "Beaton's Chapel," and his "ghost" was formerly 
credited with a lingering fondness for the place, as, according to former vulgar 
belief, the tramp of a foot, popularly known as the Cardinal's legy was heard at 
night walking up and down the original stone stair which connects the ground 
floor with the second storey. But it is doubtful if much of Ethie Castle dates 
further back than the seventeenth century. The house has frequently been altered. 
Extensive alterations were made in the time of the late earl. In the course of 
these, what was found to be a built-up cellar was opened, when there was made a 
discovery of very old wines. Ethie is a mile from the Redhead. Possibly its 
proximity to the sea has had something to do with many members of the family 
having entered the navy. The sixth and seventh earls were admirals. The latter 
served under I.ord Nelson, and was third in command iit Trafalgar. The Hon. 
Ian Carnegie has revived the interest of the family in the naval service of their 
country. 

Also within the Arbroath district of Angus we have the estates — with 
their mansions — of Kinblethmont and Anniston, both of which have a connection 
with the war in South Africa and with the present work. The Laird of Annis- 
ton is himself a soldier, and a distinguished one. Lieutenant-Colonel Arthur 
John Rait, C.B., was present at the capture of Bomarsund, in the Baltic, in 
1854. Joining the Royal Artillery in 1857, he served in the Rakamundel Field 
Force in 1859, was in the New Zealand war in 1863-64, and in the Ashanti 
war, 1873-74, in which he served on the staff of Sir Garnet (now Lord) 
Wolseley. He raised a force of native artillery. Both in New Zealand and 
Ashanti Colonel Rait was frequently mentioned in the dispatches of the 
General commanding. The Queen recognised his services by conferring upon 
him the Companionship of the Bath after the Ashanti War, and about the 
same time he received from its Town Council the honorary freedom of the 
Burgh of Arbroath. Colonel Rait takes an active part in county business. 
His only son, Lieutenant Walter Garnet Rait, who had but recently obtained 
his commission, went with his regiment, the 2nd Battalion King's Own Scottish 
Borderers, to South Africa, where he died of enteric fever. The Raits have 
long been settled at Anniston, Inverkeilor. They are a branch of the family 
of Rait of Hallgreen, in the Mearns. 

The Laird of Kinblethmont is Henry Fullarton Lindsay Carnegie of Spynie 
and Boysack. He received his commission in the Bengal Engineers, in the East 
India Company's Forces, shortly before the Mutiny. He served as Lieutenant

throughout the Mutiny, and was present at the siege of Delhi. He afterwards 
joined Lord Clyde as Assistant Field Engineer, and took part in the capture of 
Lucknow and subsequent military operations against the native chiefs in Oudh. 
In an attack upon the fort of Birwah, one of the Oudh strongholds, Lieutenant 
Carnegie was entrusted with the command of a detachment sent to blow up 
one of the gates. A sudden explosion of the powder wounded him 
severely, and he was invalided home. His services and courage gained him the 
special favour of his superior officers. Major Lindsay, nephew of Mr Lindsay 
Carnegie, is serving in the South African war. The Lindsay Carnegies have as 
one of their ancestors the first Earl of Northesk, and in later times they have 
been connected by marriage both with the Northesk and the Airlie earls. They 
are also, as Jervise says in " The Land of the Lindsays," *' the only remaining 
proprietors in Forfarshire lineally descended of the great Earls of Crawford." 
The first of the Kinblethmont Lindsays was the youngest son of the tenth 
Earl of Crawford. He was Vice-Chancellor of Scotland in the reign of 
James VI. Mrs Lindsay Carnegie is a sister of Colonel Rait. She is well 
known in Forfarshire for the interest she takes in benevolent institutions. 

Captain the Hon. Robert Carnegie, son of the Earl of Southesk, and Lieu- 
tenant Bertram Romilly, a grandson, are on the "Muster-Roll" of the war. Lord 
Southesk is the chief of the Carnegies. His Forfarshire seat is Kinnaird Castle, 
near Brechin, which was acquired by Duthac de Carnegie in 1409. The name 
" Carnegie " was first adopted when the progenitor of the Carnegies of that ilk 
(extinct about 1550) and of the Carnegies of Kinnaird obtained the estate of that 
name, in the parish of Carmyllie, about 1340; the family, for several generations 
previously, having borne the name " Dc Balinhard," as owners of an estate thus 
designated in the neighbouring parish of Arbirlot. Lord Southesk was created 
K.T. in 1869, and has received the honorary degree of LL.D. from the 
Universities of St. Andrews and Aberdeen. When he was created a Peer of 
Great Britain, Lord Southesk connected the title of his British peerage, Lord 
Balinhard of Farnell, with the ancient and present residences of his family, 
Kinnaird Castle being in the parish of Farnell. He is a poet of striking 
originality, an accomplished archaeologist, and a highly cultured man. His sister, 
the late Lady Charlotte Elliot, wrote many poems of great beauty, which are to 
be found in the published volumes, "Stella" and " Medusa," and in "Mary 
Magdalene," a volume printed for private circulation after her death. Strong 
intellect has appeared from generation to generation among the men and women 
of the Carnegies of Kinnaird. They lost themselves for a time, however, by their

loyalty to the Stuarts in 1715. The then Earl was in the battle of Sheriffmuir. 
His estates were forfeited in consequence, and he died in exile in 1729. In 1764, 
Sir James Carnegie of Pitarrow, on whom the representation of the family had 
devolved, bought back the estates. The present Earl succeeded to the baronetcy 
in 1849, and in 1855 he was restored to the forfeited Scottish titles of 
Earl of Southesk and Lord Carnegie of Kinnaird and Leuchars. Kinnaird, which 
occupies the site of an old castle, is a magnificent house of the French chateau type. 

Aldbar, also in the Brechin district, is the residence of Patrick Chalmers 
of Aldbar. The war in South Africa has a personal and special interest there 
through John Ernest Chalmers and Cecil Wolseley Chalmers, his sons, being 
troopers in Colonel Plumer's Rhodesian Horse. Aldbar Castle, which occupies a 
beautiful situation on the South Esk two miles from Brechin, is an instance of 
the conversion of an old castle into a modern mansion. The estate has been in 
the possession of the Chalmers family for about a century and a half Colonel 
Norman G. Chalmers, late Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders, brother of the 
present owner of Aldbar, has had a distinguished military career. He served 
throughout the Egyptian War of 1882, and the Nile Expedition of 1884-5, ^"<^ 
in the operations of the Soudan Frontier Field Force in 1885-6. He was several 
times mentioned in despatches, and received a medal, two clasps, and the 
Khedive's Star. Colonel Chalmers was also awarded the Order of Osmanieh for 
active and distinguished service in the field in saving the life of Major, now 
General, Sir Archibald Hunter, in doing which he was severely wounded. 
Another eminent member of the family was Patrick Chalmers, who represented 
the Montrose District of Burghs in Parliament from 1835 to 1842. He was 
public-spirited, philanthropic, and a man of excellent literary taste. Chalmers 
edited a number of club books, and was the author of an important contribution 
to the archaeology of Scotland, '* The Sculptured Monuments of Angus." 

The castles and mansions mentioned here have some connection with the 
South African War, and it is for that reason they have been selected for notice. 
What has been said is sufficient to show that the inmates of the castles, as 
well as of the cottages and town dwellings of the shire, have not been behind 
in devotion to their country in what has been regarded as a crisis of the 
Empire.

"THEY TOLD ME YOU WERE DEAD." 

By H. D. Lowry. 




^HEY told me you were dead, dear, 
A hundred years ago ; 
For every moment is a year 
To the prisoners of woe. 
They told me you were dead, dear. 

That I might understand 
Why light of sun and moon and stars 
Had left the dismal land. 

They told me you were dead, dear, 

And flowers were sweet no more ; 
God's self could find no gift for me 

In all his wondrous store. 
They told me you were dead, dear, 

I could not understand 
Why sea and sky and place of dreams 

Were empty as the land. 

They tell me you are dead, dear. 

They tell me that I live ; 
Yet He who holds the keys of death 

Alone hath boons to give. 
They told me you were dead, dear, 

A hundred years ago ; 
For every moment is a year 

To the prisoners of woe.

SERGEANT-MAJOR BURNS OF THE 

NINETY-THIRD. 

A Sketch in Angus Vernacular. 
By J. B. Salmond. 




HAT a chield my man Sandy is! Tm sure I micht juist as weel 
hae been oot in the Free State sin* we pley'd wi' thae Boer billies ; 
for the state Sandy's keepit me in a' winter has been a doonricht 
scunner. D*ye ken, Tve been nearhand dotrifeed wi' him an* his argey-bargeyin* 
an* ither ongaens. There's been naething but war in his heid for mair than a 
sax-month noo. I'll swag, Donal' an' me ha'e haen a hankie to thole ; we'll be 
bley'd when the war's owcr, I can tell ye. . 

Mornin', noon, an' nicht Sandy's been at it. He's generally devourin' the 
papers afore he has his galaces buttoned ; an' i' the middle o' suppin' his porridge 
he'll gi'e Nathan an' me a lang laberlathan aboot koppies an' ither sik-like 
f3'ke-facks an' kyowows, an' the mistaks that Buller an' Roberts, an' a curn mair 
o' oor generals are makin', that wou'd gar you think that gin Sandy were oot 
aboot he wou'd go hammerin' roond the Boers like a cooper roond a cuid. 

An' I can tell ye DonaP has haen some gey days o't when the British got 
a lampin' frae the Boers ! I'm thinkin' he'll no forget Magersfontein or 
Nicholson's Nek in a hurry. Sandy thrashed him wi' his comal whups, an' 
ruggit at the reinds till Donal' got fair doited ; an' he bunged the tatties oot o' 
the scales into the wives' baskets Hke's he had tint his rizzen athegither. You 
never saw a man in sik a pavey ! 

" Fine mornin', Sandy ! " said Leerie Ethart, as he was busy cleanin' the 
lamp at the corner o' oor street that mornin' the wird cam aboot Spion Kop. 

"Ay," says Sandy, glowerin' at him like a warlock; "a fine mornin' for 
lazy whaups like you scoongin' aboot at hame when you shou'd be awa' fechtin' 
for your country. Man, if I'd been twenty 'ear younger, I'd hae clappit a saddle 



' '4 The Muster- Roll of Anpis, 

on DonaVs back, an' aff to ha'e a peelik at the Boers mysel*. You a volunteer! 
G'wa back to the butter-market an* gi'e in your breeks an' your bayonet ! You 
shou'd be ashamed to be seen gaen aboot ! " 

Leerie was that taen aback, he near fell aff his ladder. " What are you 
rampagin' aboot, you cankered wratch," says he. " I ga'e in my name ; an' they 
wou'dna hae me 'cause I was married." 

" G'wa ! Tyach, man ! " says Sandy, as ill-natur'd as a whittret. *' You'd 
nae business bein' married;" an' he ga'e Donal' a wallop that sent him an' the 
cairt roond the corner like a flash o' lichtnin*. 

"What a girnin' vampire that man Bowden is," said Leerie to Swack, oor 
policeman, as he stood at the corner an' leuch. 

"Imphm!" said Swack wi' a smile that garr'd a' his face an' neck turn 
like a washin'-board wi' lirks. " He's no juist very perjink in his langitch. But, 
still an' on, the sicht o' Sandy on that ramfeezled sharger o' his micht fleg a 
fell curn Boers." 

It was juist aboot as far the ither wey wi' Sandy that mornin' that noos 
cam' o' the relief o' Ladysmith. He ga'e Donal* a feed o' corn that micht ha'e 
gi'en an elephant a teenge ; an' at nicht when he was beddin' him he biggit the 
clean strae up aboot Donal's hurdies till the cratur was fear'd to start till his 
supper ! An' I can tell ye, there was nae jimp wecht that day ! The ae 
scale was gaen doon wi' a doish that nearhand pitched the wechts oot o' the 
ither. Ye may tak' my wird for't, the profit o' that day's dealin's wasna ill to 
spend ! 

It's a mercy the British didna win every mornin', or, it' as fac's ocht, we'd 
been roupit to the door gin this time. Patriotism is a grand thing, nae doot. 
There's nane fonder than me o' country an' Queen — God bless an' preserve her 
kind heart for mony a lang day! But when patriotism gangs the len'th o' echt- 
pound to the half-steen — mercy me, ye ken, there's no* a livin' in't ava. But that's 
nether here nor there ! 

Well, than, as I was genna tell ye — but there's aye sae muckle to tell aboot 
that man o' mine! — juist the neist week Sandy was in the backshop i' the 
forenicht, wi' the Smith an' twa-'r-three mair o' his cronies, busy ootflankin' the 
Boers amon* the butter-kits, and explainin' hoo he cou'd ha'e timmered them up 
if he'd been in Buller's place. 

" Juist suppose, for instance, that this was a Boer commando," says Sandy, 
settin' half-a-dizzen butter-kits in a row. " Weel, here's Buller here, an' there's 
them there. The richt plan is juist to jook roond their flank, alang by the 



The Muster -Roll of Angus, i^S 



meal-girnel there, so to speak, d'ye see, through the nicht; jink up ahint their 
sentries an* get grips o' them by the thrapple afore they can lat a single 
peek. Then i' the mornin', there ye are ! Ye're in ahint them, an' they've 
ether to gi'e in or get blotted aff the slate, as Rudyard Kiplin' says. That's 
the wey I wou'd snod them." 

"No' a bad idea, Sandy," says the Smith; but suppose they mibby 
jinkit roond your flank when you was joukin' roond their's ! That wou'dna be 
so handy, wou'd it. 

" I'll no' say but that there inicht mibby be a possibeelity o' them doin' 
that," says .Sandy, gi'en his heid a claw. ** But then's the time to left-wheel 
an' pour in a cross-fire at close range, d'ye know, d'ye see ? Frontal attacks 
is fair murder. The only wey to gi'e the Boers a richt paikin' is to get at 
them through the nicht when they canna see you." 

Weel, Sandy wis jist in the thick o' a tirr-wirr wi' the Smith aboot what 
should be dune wi' Cronje, when clash to the wa' gaed the shop door, an' in 
floo Ekky Hebbirn wi' the paper. You see, we're Ekky's farrest-awa customer, 
an' he comes skelpin' ootbye here like a huntit tod frae the station, roarin' his 
papers a' the road, but never stoppin' to sell a single copy. He's a droll 
sacket, Ekky I 

Sandy's nose was into the heart o' the paper like a terrier efter a foumart ; 
an' there was naething but "imphms" an' "ows" an' **ays" for five minutes. 
Syne he suddenly gae a jump aff" his seat. **Eh?" says he, haudin' the paper 
at airm's length, and starin' intil't like's he was mesmerised, '*What say ye.*^" 
says he. " No' possible ! Bliss my heart ! " 

** What's this noo, Sandy .^" says the Smith. " Naebody hurt or killed 
that we ken I howp." 

" Bawbie ! " cried Sandy, like's he'd gotten his fingers nippit. " Come 'ere 
'oman, an' hear this ; What d'ye think ? Roddie Burns has gotten the Victoria 
Cross — presented by Buller at Ladysmith, for bravery at the battle o* Colenso ! 
Loshkeeps, lads ! The Sergeant-Major was abune sax-feet afore ; he'll be 
bigger than ever noo ! " 

" Eh, but Marget will be a prood woman," says I. " She was aye terriple 
beelt up in her loon, Roddie ! " 

" We maun go up to Montquhir anes-errand an' see them, Bawbie," says 
Sandy. "I'll go an' gie the harness a bit snod-up juist this very minute"; and 
aff" he set an' his cronies wi' him. There's nae aff*-pet wi' Sandy when he tak's 
a thing intil his heid. 



ii6 The Muster-Roll of Angus. 



" Weel, to mak' a lang story short, to Montquhir we had to go— rizzen be't 
or nane — the very neist day; Sandy, the Smith, Nathan, an' me an' DonaF. A 
bonnie day it was ! The tender green o' the wids was like a drink o* fresh 
water on a stoury efternoon, and the whistle o' the caller wind amon' their 
branches was as heartsome as the gurgle o' a bairnie's lauch. 

When we landed at Montquhir, here was the Sergeant-Major standin' at 
the yett, smokin* his pipe, lookin' as kingly an' commandin' as ever ; carryin' 
his seventy odd winters as lichtly as Maggie — that Roddie's little lassockie ; 
she's a fell taed noo, of course— wou'd carry a bunch o' maysies. 

" Sandy ! Bawbie I " he said, stappin' ootower to meets. What airt's the 
wind in the day ava that it's blawn ye this gate ? " 

Sandy ga'e the reinds a twine into DonaPs curpin, jamp doon, an' shook 
hands wi' Roderick something terriple, peyin' nae farrer heed to either horse or 
cairt. If it hadna been Nathan, we'd a' been heels-ower-gowrie i' the ditch ; 
Donal's that fond o' a green moofu'. 

"An' hoo's Marget?" says I, after Roderick had lifted me oot o' the 

cairt, juist as I have seen him do when I was a roid young coign, say ow, 

weel, a fell twa-'r-three year syne noo ! 

" Aye haudin' the road an' juist witterin' awa ; but naething to brag 
aboot," said Roderick. " But here she is see ! " he added, as Marget cam' 
hirplin' doon the yaird. 

I can tell ye, it wisna lang till Marget had the kettle an' frying-pan 
singin' on the fire, an' the benhoose table laden wi' pozels o' her ain scones an' 
bannocks, and bowls lippin' foo o' sweet milk. She didna hain the kitchen, 
I ashure ye ! an' we did tak' oor tea ! Haud your tongue ! D'ye ken, the 
fresh air made me that hungry that I was nearhand black affrontit at my 
ain appiteet. An' Nathan stack in till I was akinda fley'd at him. But 
Marget was aye handin' him the ither sheed o' breed, laden wi' sweet butter 
an* grozer-jeel, an' Nathan had a crap for a' corn. 

Hoosomever, we a' enjoyed oor tea by-ordinar' weel ; an' syne Marget 
drew inby the sofa an' we got a' set roon* the fire, the Sergeant- Major in 
his ain big chair, wi' Sandy opposite him, and the rest o's atween them. 

"Ay; it's a great honour," said Roderick, reachin' up to the chumla for 
his pipe, an' takin' a prood, half-waefu* glint o' the row o' medals that hang 
below his father's picture. 

" It is ! " said the Smith, gettin' ready his cutty to bear Roderick company in a 
reek. "Your father wad hae been a prood man this day, had he lived to see't." 



The Muster- Roll of Angus, 117 



** Ay ; an' I think this is what grandfather prayed for for forty year, 
Smith/* said the Sergeant- Major. " He is, Tm pretty stire, if no' a prood, a 
happy man this day, if he kens o' this. An* I believe he does/' he added 
in a voice Hke*s he was pronouncin' a benediction, " though it's aucht-an-fifty 
year noo sin' they happit him in his grave owerby at Redstane." 

D'ye ken, when I was a young kimmer I had aye a feelin', when I was 
speakin' to Roderick Burns — that was afore he listed an' gaed awa to the 
Crimea— that he cou'd ha'e ta'en me an' putten me in his pooch. He was 
that magerfu' ; I never met his marrow ! The soond o' his voice had a bum 
in't like the wind in the wids o' the Guynd ; an' his big. saft grey e'e 
glinted as gin a lamp was lichtit in his heid. It's as fac's ocht, d'ye ken, 
he aye made me feel akinda mauchtless — although a kinder-hearted man never 
stappit. That's a lang time syne noo ; but, wou'd ye believe it, the very same 
feelin' cam' ower me when he spak' o' his grandfather. 

"He focht at Camperdown, didna he?" speered Sandy. 

" He focht at Camperdown," repeated Roderick. '* An' a weel-faur'd chield 
he maun ha'e been," he added, blawin' a moofu' o' reek into the lum, an' 
starin' into the heart o' the fire. " There was fully sax-feet o' him, Sandy ; 
Admiral Duncan himsel' said that Roderick Burns, Sergeant o' Marines on the 
* Belliqueux/ was aboot the only man in his fleet that he wou'dna care to 
tackle single-handed. An* the Admiral — as ye've nae doot heard tell — was as 
brave, as big, an' as bonnie a Scotsman as ever focht for his native land." 

" I mind weel o' hearin' your father speak of en o' Admiral Duncan an' 
Lord Northesk/' says I. " An' the wey he spak o' your grandfather was aye 
something byordinar*." 

"Ay, Bawbie," said Roderick, wi' a twinkle in his e'e that reminded me 
o' lang-syne ; " gin my grandmither had been as gleg a hand at the pen as 
you, she cou'd hae written a scrift aboot her man weel wirth readin'. He was 
nearhand as winderfu* a character as Sandy himsel'." 

"You've been a fechtin' family," said the Smith. "Your grandfather focht 
at Camperdown ; * your father was at Waterioo ; you gaed through the Crimea 
an' the Mutiny yoursel' ; an' noo here's young Roderick gotten the Victoria 
Cross ! I'm thinkin' there's no mony families in Scotland can brag o' sik a 
story. What sent ye a' into the fechtin' business ava } " 

"That's a story that gangs back to the Mutiny at the Nore ; an' there's 
nane livin' the day that can tell the whole o't," answered Roderick. "If you 
wanted to rouse grandfather's dander, you had juist to mention the Nore. He 



ii8 The Muster- Roll of Angus, 

used to say that Parker an' the rest got nae mair than they deserved ; but he 
thocht some o' the doited duiiderheids at the Admiralty wou'd ha'e been nane 
the waur o' a bit hangin' at the same time. He got into some pickle ower 
the heid o't ; an*, even efter Camperdown, there was a stramush, and grandfather 
cam hamc. His father died within a twa-V-three days o' his hame-comin', an' 
his mither was left her leefu' lane. The fowk at the heid o' affairs in the 
Navy made some enquiry efter grandfather, an' were tell'd that Roderick Burns 
was deid. They thocht it was grandfather, an* there was nae mair wird o't 
But baith Duncan o' Camperdown an* Northesk kent a* the story, an' they were 
here, baith o* them, aneth this very roof, oftener than ance." 

** Michty me ! D*ye say so ? '* says Sandy, gowpin' up at the rafters wi' 
his moo wide open, an' his hands up like Dominic Sampson. ** By faigs, lads ; 
this is a hoose wirth bidin' in!** 

" There was some mystery aboot it,'* continued Roderick. " My father 
didna ken the exact particulars ; but he aye said it was naething dishonourable. 
An* it cou*dna ha*e been ; for Admiral Northesk an* Captain Inglis o* Redhall — 
that was him that commanded the * Belliqueux * at Camperdown, an' said, juist 
as they were signallin* to begin the battle, — * Damn thae signals ! Up wi* the 
helium an* into the middle o* them * — baith o' them stood at grandfather's graveside ; 
an* Northesk said to Mester Powrie, the minister, when he was biddin' grannie 
good-bye, * A British Admiral, goin* into the stiffest battle he micht ever face, 
could wish for no better man than Sergeant Burns to stand at his shoulder on 
the upper deck.' That I've been tell'd ; but this I ken — that my father listed 
an' focht at Waterloo to please his father; an' when grandfather was on his 
death-bed he said to my father, * You'll gi'e ane o' your loons to your country, 
Roderick ' ; an' that's hoo I cam to see bloody battles in the Crimea, an' wi' 
Sir Colin in the days o' the Mutiny." 

"Ay," brook in Sandy, wi' a pech o' relief— he'd been listenin' wi' moo, 
een an* ears wide open — " Sir Colin was a General wirth while speakin' aboot. 
Man, if we'd only haen him ootbye i' the noo, Mester Kruger, an' the feck o* 
thae Boer billies, wou*d hae been brakin* stanes in Perth gyle gin this time. 
We've muckle need o* a little o* the Balaclava kind o' thing oot aboot Sooth 
Africa, Roderick. We maun ha'e some o' you auld * Thin Red Line' billies 
reekit oot an' sent to the Transvaal yet. Sergeant. We have Mester Cobb doon 
in Arbroath, an' Sergeant Jago in Montrose, an' a curn mair, besides yoursel'. 
I'm thinkin' you billies cou'd timmer up a puckle Boers the richt gate yet, auld 
age an' athegither.** 



The Muster-Roll of Angus. iiQ 

Roderick blew a ring o' reek in the air, an' his lauch was like the soond 
o' a bugle. " We've a fell curn grand generals at hame, Sandy," says he, 
"writing to the noospapers, or sellin' tatties, for that pairt o't. Experts, I see 
they ca' some o' them. Weel, I'm mibby no* muckle o' a judge; but it's 
my opinion that the British sodger — ay, an' the British general an' a' — is what 
he has aye been, the bravest and best in the world. That, as Marget here wou'd 
say, is the clash o' the countryside in every land o' the earth. Ay, an' Mester 
Cobb's aye toddlin' aboot, is he?" he added efter a while. 

" He is that, an* winderfu' fleet an' hardy," said the Smith. 

*' Ay, ay." said Roderick, takin' anither look into the fire. " Nane o's is 
likely to forget that October mornin' in a hurry." 

** You mean Balaclava ? " said Sandy. 

" Balaclava," repeated the Sergeant -Major. ** But, man, when ye come to 
think o't, there's michty little atween victory and defeat sometimes. If the 
Rooshians had haen anither Donal o' vodka — that was the whisky they drank — 
that mornin', there's nae sayin' but Sir Colin's * Thin Red Line' michta been ca'ed 
a' to crookineeshin, and him sent hame just like Gatacre." 

** Bide ye noo, Roderick," I says, says I. ** By golly, lad, if ye begin to rin 
doon the * Thin Red Line' Sandy '11 be on to Donal's back chairgin' you himself. 
He has a grand picture o't in the backshop at hame, an* he lectures everiastin' 
aboot Balaclava to all an' sundry. I'll swag. Sergeant, but you'll better ca' canny." 

" Nane o' your ornamental lees, noo Bawbie," says Sandy. ** Roderick's richt 

eneuch. Isn't Burns that says somewey — i 

Genius frae madness is no* far awa, 
There's michty liitle atween the twa. 

"That's in my schoolbook," said Nathan, "but that's no' the wey o't. It's 
something aboot a thin partition wa'.' 

"You're richt eneuch, birkie," said the Sergeant- Major to Nathan. "You'll 
be a man afore your mither yet, my gallant lad. But diima mistak' me," 
he added, turnin' to the Smith an' me wi' a wave o' his hand. " I ken 
weel what the auld 93rd was in the days o' the Crimea. Better sodgers 
— if it werena mibby an antern ane or twa here an' there — never pulled the trigger 
o' a musket ; although they said hereaboot at the time that we had in the 
regiment the rakin's o* the Scoorinburn o' Dundee an' o' Croall's Wynd in 
Arbroath. An' when we left Plymouth in the * Himalaya' there's nae doot there 
were some gey like radger*s amon's. They were dreeled into grand fechtin' stuff 
afore Balaclava, hooever. But think o' a line twa deep bein' set up to stop a

thoosand o' the best cavalry in the Rooshian airmy. Man, it lookit like settin* 
up a red-stane dyke to haud back the sea." 

" I wou'dna doot but that there micht be something in what you say," 
says Sandy. 

"They cam thunderin' doon like a winter flood in the nairro' o' the Gan- 
nochy," continued Roderick. " The growl o* their oncomin' fury was like the 
rum'le o' hell aneth oor feet ; the very earth was tremblin*. I took a bit gley 
alang the line an' saw the feathers in the busbies o' the 93rd quiver like*s they'd 
been shaken wi* the wind. It was the boys diggin' their heels in the turf an' 
setting their heids like men with the sough o' death soondin' in their ears." 

"That's it; that's exactly it!" said Sandy, jerkin' forrit his heid. an' 
steekin's niv's like's he saw fifty Rooshians fleein' at him. " I've Mester 
Gibb's picture o't at hame. Man, Roderick, I'd gi'en a pound-note to been there ! " 

" Ay, Sandy," replied Roderick quietly, bringin' his hand across his broo ; 
" if you'd been there you'd mibby gi'en twa pound-notes — gin you'd haen them — 
to be some ither wey." 

" Ay, Sandy," said Cairncortie, " if you'd been there you'd gi'en the best 
teeth in your chafts to be back safe up on the front-end o' your tattie-cart." 

Cairncortie had come in while Roderick was speaking, alang wi' Tillyhiot 
an' Tympinny Tamson the joiner frae Wardnook. 

" Inby, an' sit ye doon," said Marget, as they cam' into the room. " Ye 
see," she says, turnin' to me, "a' kind o' characters get bilbie in this hoose." 

"When the Rooshian cavalry swung aboot to get roond oor richt flank," 
continued Roderick — for he was back into the thick .0' the battle again — " There 
were a fell puckle tume saddles an' troopers on fit gin that time — Sir Colin 
wheeled the Grenadier Company on its centre to the right, an' bent back his 
line till it was like a half-shut knife. The Rooshian General saw that he had 
met mair than his marrow, an' in a twinklin' his squadrons were awa back the 
wey they cam', leavin' a gey curn deid an' wounded ahent them." 

" That was something wirth ca'in' a battle," Sandy blurted oot, slappin' his 
hands on his knees. *' Lyin' in trenches pappin' awa at ane anither on the sly ; 
feech, that's no war ava ; it's mair like pee-koo ! " 

" But what I was to say, Sandy," Roderick gaed on, " was this — that, if 
the Rooshian cavalry had come on — an' I'm no sure but an' extra gless o' vodka 
the piece wou'd hae brocht them ; the Rooshians cudna fecht wirth a diot 
excep' when they were half foo — oor 'Thin Red Line' wou'd hae run a gey 
sharpin'. If it had gane to pieces, a' the experts an' backshop generals in the

kingdom would hae been on to Sir Colin*s tap, and teird him an* a* the country 
what a gomeral he was. It's easy winnin' battles wi* ammunition oot o' an* ink- 
bottle. Sandy, an* the enemy the maitter o' three thoosand miles awa ! ** 

Sandy saw brawly that Roderick had him ; so, ha*ein* naething to say, 
he took oot his hankie an' blew his nose. 

" An* what aboot the wife that ga'e some o* the Turks a paikin* when they 
were fleein* through amon* the Highlanders to get oot o' the road?** says 
Tillyhiot 

" Tve read aboot that in oor history at hame,** said Nathan. " She was 
raised at them for rinnin* awa, the cooardie things *at they were ! '* 

** I saw her," said Roderick. " She was a glib-tongued tague, I can tell ye. 
It set a roar o* a lauch richt through the regiment to hear an* see her yalpin* an* 
layin* frae her amon* the sneakin* dogs. I saw her gi*e ae muckle dosent snotter 
a fung wi* her fit that garred him play skloit a* his len*th, an* he up an* scuddit 
like a maukin* withoot sayin* a wird. They said she cam* frae the Gallowgate 
o* Glesca ; her langitch seemed to me to ha*e a flavour o* Lochee aboot it. It 
was aboot as strange a sicht as ever was seen on a battlefield — a woman 
lampin* sodgers to get them to stand an* face up the enemy. But the Turks — 
the very lowk for whose sake French an' British blood was poured oot like 
water — the damned villains gaed an' robbit oor tents while we were facin* their 
foes an' fechtin* their battles!** 

" The nesty footers,** said Sandy, haudin* up his steekit niv. " If Fd been 
there Td garred some o* the skrunts chowl their chafts.** 

'* It*s a winder to me that oor sodgers gaed on fechtin* when they saw 
what wirthless whaups the Turks were,** said the Smith. 

" There never was a wird o* insubordination that I heard,** said the 
Sergeant-Major; "but when we were hurklin* doon in the trenches up ower the 
kuits amon* slush, wi* naething but teuch pork an* rum to eat an* drink — an* 
often michty little o* that — there was mony a British musket that wou*d hae 
turned on the Turks wi* as keen determination at the butt-end o*t as sent its 
bullets up to the ramparts o* Sebastopol. The man in the ranks doesna think 
very often aboot the cause for which he fechts — an* mibby it*s juist as weel for*s 
a* that he doesna. * For Queen and country* is enough for him. Wi* that cry 
on his lips the British sodger has garr'd the world winder ofener than ance. 
Tak* my word for*t. billies, he*s as fit for his task the day as ever he was in 
the days o* Wellington or Sir Colin." 



122 The Muster-Roll of Angus. 



" YouVe richt ! " says Sandy, startin' up aff his seat. " YouVe heard me say 
that, Smith— 

* Their 's not to reason why, 
Their's not to make reply, 
Thcir's but to do or die '— 

Ah, Balaclava! Was there ever sic a battle?" 

"It wasna a battle," Roderick broke in: ''^it was a day o* splendid 
madness. The fey bluid seemed to hae gotten into the heid o' every officer 
an' man in the field. If Sir Colin's *Thin Red Line' was a risk, Scarlett's 
chairge wi* the Heavies was a reckless temptin' o' Providence. Man, the 
Brigade disappeared amon' the Rooshian squadrons like fox* hunters intil a wid. 
It wis a winder they ever cam' oot. As for the chairge o' Cardigan an' the 
Light Brigade, that was the maddest but most magnificent exploit ever seen 
on a British battlefield. I've seen mony a sodger drunk wi' the wine o' war — 
it tak's a strong heid to cairry muckle o' that drink — but at Balaclava the 
whole British, force was delirious wi' valour. You speir at Mester Cobb the 
first time you meet him, an' he'll tell you that half-a dizzen times some o's 
had to grip youngsters in the 93rd by the cuflT o' the neck to keep them 
frae rushin' oot an' chairgin' the Roosjiian cavalry ! " 

"An' did ye no' see the chairge o' the Light Brigade, Roderick!" I 
speered. 

" No," said he ; " that took place on the ither side o' the hill ; but I saw 
the remains o't that nicht when we were oot buryin' oor deid. Ay; there was 
the makin' o' mony a wearyfu' hame in that day's wark, Bawbie— mony a weel 
faur'd fellow— baith British an' Rooshian— lyin' stark an' still wi' nane to speir 
*Wha's echt him?' If ever I got griet-hearted, it was that forenicht as I helped 
to bury Lieutenant Abercrombie, as brave an' braw a lad as ever wore a cockit 
bonnet. Ay ; ay ! " said the Sergeant-Major ; an' he lichtit a spunk atween the 
ribs an' sat lookin' into the flame o't, wi' his pipe in the ither hand, croonin' to 
himsel' — 

"Oh, wat ye no my hert was sair 
When I happit the mouls on his yellow hair ; 
Oh, wat ye no my hert was wae 
When I turned aboot an' went my way ! " 

" Eh, sirce, ay," says Marget, in a waefu' voice ; " it maun be a mournfu' 
sicht a battlefield. I wiss my laddie were hame again to his wife an' bairnies, 
an' his soord an' gun laid by. I'm sure, sodger's wife an' mither though I be, 



The Muster- Roll of Angus, 123 



nae woman ever prayed mair anxiously than me for the day when, as the 
auld Paraphrase says — 

•* No longer hosts encountVing hosts 
Shall crowds of slain deplore ; 
They hang the trumpet in the hall 
An' study war no more." 

" Oh, but Roddie '11 sune be back, Marget," said the Smith, layin' his hand 
on her shuder ; " an' a gey prood woman ye'll be. Tm thinkin* the boddom o' the 
greybeard 'ill be turned to the rafters that day. Tm no' growkin' for a biddin'* 
but I'll wad a groat, if I'm spared, ye may lippen to me bein' here to help awa' 
wi' a donal o' its contents. Ay, Marget, an' gin his country shou'd need him, 

when Roddie's litlan grows to be a man — an' may God spare an' bless him his 

grannie, I ken, is no' the woman that would refuse to gi'e, for Queen an' 
Fatherland, anither Roderick yet ! " 

There was a glimmer o' a tear in Roderick's e'e as Marget an' the Smith 
spak ; but his mooth closed ower his pipeshank like a vice ; an' I cou'dna help 
sayin' to mysel' — ''Thank God, oor beloved Queen an' country ha'e little to fear 
as lang as we can breed an' bring up sodgers like Sergeant- Major Burns!"

By Helen B. Mill. 




URMURED the waves to the 
Old Red Sandstone 
Bounding the shores of the 
old North Sea — 
" What is the meaning of all this land- 
strom, 
Pouring out transports to burden me ? 

" What is the meaning of all this throb- 
bing, 
Heart of a nation I hold in fee ? 
Why did that maiden go by there 
sobbing, 
Looking so wistfully over the sea ? " 



"Ocean, you carry her heart on your 
bosom ; 
Carry it gently for her and for me! 
Blasted her beauty if now she should 
lose him, 
Dreary the weird she would have 
to dree. 

" Carry him gently — nobly he's leaving 
All he holds dear for his ain countree; 
Bear him back swiftly, honour receiv- 
ing, 
Bring him home safe to the maiden 
and me ! "

OFFICERS IN BRITISH REGIMENTS AND NAVAL 

BRIGADES. 



The Number at the end of the Note denotee the Page on which the Portrait it to be found. 



AiRLiE, Earl of — David William Stanley 
Ogilvy, Lieut. -Colonel, commanding 12th 
(Prince of Wales Royal) Lancers ; son of 
the seventh Earl of Airlie and Hon. 
Henrietta Blanche (daughter of second 
Lord Stanley of Alderley). Born, 1856 ; 
educated at Eton. Married 1886, Lady' 
Mabel Frances Elizabeth Gore, daughter 
of the fifth Earl of Arran. Lieutenant's 
Commission, 1875; Major of loth Royal 
Hussars, 1885 ; Major 2nd in Command 
of 2nd Dragoon Guards (Queen's Bays) ; 
served in the Afghan War, 1878 (Medal) : 
in Egypt, 1884 (Medal); and in Nile 
Expedition, 1884-85; wounded at Abu 
Klea and at Metammeh ; twice mentioned 
in despatches (Brevet-Major and two 
clasps.) Lord Airlie's honours include 
the Afghan and East Soudan Medals 
with Clasps, the fourth-class Medjidie, 
and two Clasps for the Nile Expedition. 
Lord Airlie went to South Africa in 
command of the 12th Lancers, of which 
regiment he was gazetted Lieutenant- 
Colonel in 1897. During the war he was 
several times mentioned in despatches, 
his services at a critical moment during 
the battle of Magersfontein, when he dis- 
mounted two squadrons and checked the 
enemy, coming in for special mention. In 
the thick of the fight, wherever his regi- 
ment was called upon, Lord Airlie was 
frequently under fire; he was severely 
wounded in the fight at Welkom on 4th 
May. He recovered speedily under the 
devoted care of the Countess, who at- 
tended him at Bloemfontein ; he rejoined 
his regiment in the beginning of June, and 
died a soldier's death in Action near Pre- 
toria on June 11, 1900, after taking part 



in a charge which saved the guns. South 
African medal, with clasps for Relief of 
Kimberley, Paardeberg, Dreifontein, and 
Diamond Hill. A braver soldier or more 
intrepid cavalry oflficer never served his 
Queen. The Earl of Airlie maintained, 
with great distinction, the hi^est military 
traditions of the name he bore, and his 
kindness of heart and generous treatment 
of his tenantry maintained other family 
traditions not less honourable and popu- 
lar. Wherever he was known. Lord 
Airlie's death was heard of with deep re- 
gret ; in P'orf arshire it was felt amongst 
all classes with the keen sorrow of per- 
sonal bereavement. The one consolation 
lay in the fact that he had died as, one 
can well believe, he would have wished 
to die had it been his to choose — in action, 
at the head of his men, and with his face 
to the foe. Lord Airlie was one of Scot- 
land's representative Peers, and a De- 
puty-Lieutenant of his native county. He 
was Hoa Colonel of the 3rd (Dundee 
Highland) Volunteer Battalion Black 
Watch (Royal Highlanders), and took a 
keen and generous interest in the affairs 
of the Battalion. [137

There he remained throughout the siege, 
and took a prominent part in the defeat 
of the Boers' great attack on Caesar's 
Camp, on 6th Jan., 1900. With one com-

chester picquets, and rescued Lieutenant 
Hunt-Grubbe, who had been captured. 
Though twice severely wounded at out-

ing them off the plateau with a bayonet 
charge, and keeping them back with the 
rifle; thus for some hours holding the 
position unaided, till the arrival of two 
companies of the Rifle Brigade, soon after 
which his wounds compelled him to retire.

included in this volume. Major Carnegie

took part in operations in Natal and the
